The Nonverbal Advantage: Secrets and Science of Body Language at Work (Bk Business)
The Nonverbal Advantage: Secrets and Science of Body Language at Work (Bk Business) The workplace is a “blink” world. Studies show we form opinions of one another within 7 seconds of meeting, and that 93% of the message people receive from us has nothing to do with what we actually say. Good nonverbal communication skills are a huge professional advantage. Carol Kinsey Goman combines the latest research and her 25 years of practical experience as a consultant, coach and therapist to offer a fun and practical guide to understanding what we and the people we work with are saying without speaking. Goman writes in an informal, conversational tone, illustrating her points with cartoons, photos and anecdotes, and she includes dozens of simple and enlightening exercises readers can practice to gain control over the message their body is sending. “The Nonverbal Advantage” will help readers communicate far more effectively, understand those around them more completely, and project a more accurate picture of who they really are to their colleagues, clients and partners.
Customer Review: Great for business… for personal life too
I love the way this book delivered what it promised - education about nonverbal cues within the context of the business environment. But after finishing the book, what has surprised me is how much I now find myself closely watching the nonverbal signs of politicians on TV, friends and family - the book will undoubtedly help me to better understand others and give me the chance to consciously improve my own communication skills. Carol invites us to pay much more attention to each other!
