This month's book choice is a Ted Talk
How we stand (posture), how we fold our arms, use our hands and nod our head (gestures), the number of times we smile, blink, or frown (facial expressions) and our pitch, tone, as well as way we laugh and say our R's (voice) are the non-verbal (body language) cues that first impressions--and sometimes lasting impressions-- are made of. Amy Cuddy's Ted Talk, "Your body language shapes who you are," has had close to 4,000,000 views-yup, that's 4 million! So take a few minutes, and learn something about the powerful or powerless signals you send out |
