Other Added - What is Body Language
When you first learned to drive did you just jump in the car and go or did you learn the rules of the road first? When you bake a cake, do you follow a recipe or just throw random ingredients in a bowl and hope for the best? If you have a small business it's no different for your employees; when they come to work having a manual or handbook helps them understand expectations and be a better employee.Here are three reasons to develop and use an employee handbook:1. Provides a source of information about company policies and procedures which is good fo
"…A powerful agent is the right word…" --Mark TwainAnd what true words those are! Your marketing efforts have the ability to succeed…or to fail…based on the words you choose to represent your products, services, and yourself in your ads.You have the ability to choose any words you desire. The problem is, sometimes, we draw a blank. Our minds seem amiss of anything creative to say. This is when a diverse collection of pre-written phrases, designed to bring miraculous changes to your ads, comes in handy.
Humans have the tendencey to communicate with each other. This can happen in obvious and in not so obvious ways. We speak, we write. However, we can also communicate without even using words at all. If words are used to communicate content, this nonverbal communication speaks about our relatishonsips. This is probably even more important than getting the message across. We are meta-communicating - communicating about communication! When words just don’t do it
When we are talking to a person we also need to make it clear how the content of our message is to be interpreted. The way we do this speaks about the relationship we have to this person, or at least the way we think of this person. Words cannot do this. It is easier to show than it is to speak about our emotions. The meaning of our words is created throguh body language. In the de Saussurian meaning this langue (in opossed to the parole) is used for nonverbal communication. We use it all the time. Most of the time we are not even aware of using it. Touching somebody during the conversation means something completely different than not touching our partner in conversation. It is just not possible to communicate without using non-verbal language - written word is the only exception.
Are we aware?
Most of the body language is communicated on an unconscous level. Yet it has an extensive influence to the quality of our message. From this we can conclude that it would be a good idea to become conscious of our - and what is of even greater importance - other’s body lingo.
We can learn to use our body language for a purpose and to understand the body language of others. We also have to be aware that body language is interpreted culturaly - its meanings differ in different cultures. The interpretaion depends on the situation, the culture, the relationship we have with the person as well as the gender of the other. What this means is that not a single signal of our body has the same meaning in all parts of the globe. This is an important point and should be taken into account. The language of our body is integrally connected to the spoken lang
Have you ever driven by an empty commercial lot and thought, “That would be an awesome place for a business right there,” but then couldn’t think of the perfect business to go there? I know I have and it drives me crazy until I can come up with something that would be perfect for that location. It may take me a few days but I will come up with something that would be a fit. How many people just don’t, or better yet, just can’t figure out what would be a success for that area?I believe the reason some people will never see success is not because of their lack

When is the best time to stop sending direct mail donation appeal letters to your lapsed donors?Never.Dropping lapsed donors and members from your mailings is rarely cost-effective. Sending them all of your regular mailings is not cost-effective either, of course, and I’m not saying that you should. But lapsed donors should receive something from your organization each year.Maybe a year-end appeal. Maybe a simple renewal mailing. But you should send them something. Here’s why.Lapsed donors are better prospects for gifts than complete stra

Like many human resource, finance, distribution or manufacturing managers, do you simply view PR as able to create some publicity by moving a message from one point to another using tactics like brochures, broadcast plugs and press releases?Or, are you a business, non-profit, government agency or association manager who needs the kind of public relations effort that leads directly to achieving your managerial objectives? That would tell me that you no longer wish to be denied the best public relations has to offer, and that you want to pursu
Feelings matter
Body language is used especially to express feelings. For instance if we are fond of someone, it is often difficult to say that directly to the person. It is, on the other hand, easier to make our feelings clear (intentionally or unintentionally) through body language. The opposite is also true. We may say that we ARE angry through words yet our body language may be saying loud and clear that we are NOT. This can be very confusing for the recipientof the message. The situation is usually described as giving out double messages - one message in words and an opposite message in body language. It is also difficult to lie or cover up our feelings through body language. We may give their true feelings away by not being aware of their body language. Research has shown that most people pay more attention to, and believe more readily, their impression of how a person acts through body language than what is said through words. As a consequence we tend to doubt, or put a question mark behind, the spoken words if they do not correspond with the language of the body .
Awareness of how we communicate = Vital
Only a small part of how we come across to another person is decied by the words we speak (according to research, less than 5%). It is of vital importance that
