The Secrets Of Body Language.

BODY LANGUAGE-LEARN HOW TO READ PEOPLE.

"The body says what words cannot."-Martha Graham.(1894-1991)

Approximately 65% of all communication is non-verbal.People often say one thing whilst their body language says another.Therefor being able to read a person's body language is a vital negotiating skill.I have listed below the most popular gestures seen in everyday communication between human beings:

1.HANDS : Open palms (honest),Steepled fingers (superior),Interlocked fingers (frustration),Fingers in front of mouth when speaking (deceitful),Thumbs protruding from pockets (dominant),Thumb pointing at a person (disrespectful),fingers in mouth (insecure),Hand rubbing (expectant),Finger/s on chin (evaluating).

By altering the angle of your hand when shaking hands you can take the first step towards gaining or giving control of a conversation or situation.

Dominant=rotate your hand anti-clockwise before shaking.

Passive=rotate your hand in a clockwise manner.

Equal/neutral=keep your hand straight.

Two hand shake no-no's are the 'knuckle cruncher' and the 'wet fish'.

2.ARMS : Crossed over chest (defensive),Crossed with fist clench (hostile),Placed behind head (confrontational),
Gripping arm behind back (authoritarian).
