Training Course Description

"The body never lies."
Martha Graham

This course continues on the same format as Body Language Part 1. It covers more advanced collection of gestures and signals used in personal or professional life while interacting with others. As before, the course has a large number of gesture cards that describe each behaviour. Slides and workbooks contain various detailed explanations on these gestures, where they are used, what they mean and how to counteract them when necessary.

The modular nature of the course allows you to use the content easily in your own courses. The images and illustrations are designed with a uniform and consistent artistic style which can help you to polish your content and get the message across quickly and efficiently.

This course particularly focuses on handling power gestures especially those used by some people when intimidating others. These gestures may work on you unconsciously, which this course helps you to identify and learn how to counteract them. In addition, the course covers body language used when you are with a group of people and explains about power play, show of status and show of interest all delivered using only body language. The course also contains important advice on posture, hand gestures, the art of public speaking and presentation.

In this highly practical course delegates will learn:
• Power, politics, domination and show of status
• Dealing with difficult people
• Meeting people in groups or in meeting rooms
• Presentations and public speaking

Many elaborate topics are covered. Examples are:
• What are intimidation gestures?
• How to know if someone isn't sure of what they are saying only based on their body language?
• How to take advantage of the power of touch?
• How to turn the table if you are consistently dominated?
• How to show that you mean it?
• How to appear serious and in charge?
• How to know if someone will be argumentative just based on how they sit on a chair?
• How personal zones affect our behaviour just about everywhere?
• Why people in large cities appear cold?
• How to join a group of strangers confidently?
• How to sit in a meeting room to get best results?
• How to engage the audience effectively using body language?

The Philosophy Behind Body Language Training Course

Similar to Body Language Part 1, this course is designed from the outset to cover two needs. One need to provide a full day course on body language that covers various postures which increase the delegate's awareness of these non-verbal signals. The other need is that many soft skills courses require the inclusion of a session or chapter on body language since you can't really talk about communication skills in general without covering this topic.

The course provided here satisfies both needs by offering a selection of gesture cards categorised into a number of collections. You can go through them as part of a one-day course or you can pick the gesture cards you are interested in and use them in your courses based on the topics you teach. For example, you can pick a number of gestures cards on greetings, impact and handshaking and include them in Client Management Skills or Interview Skills and so on.
