What is your Leadership Style?
Spoken communication gives us information on what you know
unspoken communication gives us the experience of who you are .
"people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Maya angelou
+The greatest decisions of life are made based on how we feel about the person on the opposite side; interviews are no exception.
Be it for a job, scholarship, or media interview if you want to give an unforgettable experience focus on non-verbal communication.
Your non-verbal communication conveys your confidence, interest, and enthusiasm.
Here are some ways it can work for you and why:
Maintaining eye contact: conveys confidence and assertiveness
Why: this means you are saying the truth and you have no doubt about it. Someone lying would fail to do so.
Leaning forward while replying: demonstrates interest
Why: this means you are interested to get into the territorial zone of the other person. You want to connect and is showing visible alignment.
Mirroring the interviewer's tone of voice: builds rapport
Why: this means you resonate with the person. Being in unison, the same frequency of voice demonstrates harmony and agreement. It is like a handshake with your voice.
+Overall, nonverbal communication can be a powerful tool to albert mehrabian, a researcher of body language, of overall communication, 55% is nonverbal, 38% vocal, and 7% is words only.
+Do you know if you are using non-verbal communication at work? Is your presence felt in the room?
