We
use non-verbal communication everyday in our lives at work, school and even
just parking the car in a parking lot. Non-verbal communication is a form of
communicating without using words. For example composing an email to your boss
at work about an idea that you have, raising your hand in class as a gesture to
show you have an answer to your teacher’s questions and waving at a pedestrian
to go ahead and cross in front of you before you park the car at your local
mall. Lack of skills or weak non-verbal communication can create a negative
effect and a miscommunication. No matter how or where you non-verbally
communicate, practising to improve this skill will help your message get across
positively.
The
following is a non-verbal techniques checklist that can ensure positive and
clear communication.
Finally,
perfecting your non-verbal communication skills will show you are professional
and businesslike. You will project a positive signal consistently at work and
in return, you will have more chances of promotions, credits/merits/awards and
opportunities in your workplace. Remember: “Actions speak louder than words!”
