Body language is non-verbal communication through gestures, posture, facial expressions and other movements. It accounts for 55% of communication. Body language includes kinesics (body movements), proxemics (use of space) and haptics (touch). Maintaining eye contact, nodding, keeping an open posture and relaxed facial expressions communicate confidence and active listening, while crossed arms, lack of eye contact and slouching can signal defensiveness or disinterest. One should be aware of how their body language is perceived and make adjustments to improve their communication skills and appearance.
The face tells a lot about feelings. When you speak, more than any other part of the body, your face will communicate most clearly your attitudes, feelings and emotions.

4. What is Body Language ?
Body language is non-verbal communication
involving body movement.
People in the workplace convey a great deal of
information without even speaking - through
“Gesturing" , posture, expressions, etc.
5. 7 % VERBAL (Conveyed
through words)
38 % VOCAL (intonation ,
pitch, pauses , etc)
55 % NON VERBAL (body
language)
Body language includes the gestures,
postures, movements and expressions
that a person uses to communicate.
6. Why is Body Language so
important?
People remember more of
what they see than what
they hear.
Long after a meeting, we
are likely to have forgotten
the exact words someone
used, but we may retain a
vivid image of the same
person's facial expression.
7. What we are trying to deliver through verbal
means might not be exactly similar to what we are
delivering from our non-verbal means.
8. Believed
When verbal and nonverbal cues contradict one another,
the non-verbal cues are more likely to be believed.

If there are several people you
are talking to, give them all
some eye contact to create a

they are listening.
Keeping too much eye-contact
might creep people out.
Giving no eye-contact might
make you seem insecure.

Nod once in a while to signal that you are listening.

heard you shouldn’t cross your
arms as it might make you

easily winds up as tension

slightly.

seem nervous and
can be distracting
for the listeners or
the people in the

the ground, it might
make you seem
insecure and a bit lost.
Keep your head up
straight and have eye
contact.
32. Use your hands more
confidently
Instead of fidgeting with
your hands and scratching
your face use them to
communicate what you are
trying to say.
Use your hands to describe
something or to add weight
to a point you are trying to
make.

nervous ticks such as shaking your leg or tapping your fingers
against the table rapidly.

relaxed attitude.

come through in
your body language
