techniques for improving nonverbal communication skills in the workplace


Pay attention to your voice: As a speaker you should pay attention to your voice pitch or tone, because voice changes the meaning of the word. You should avoid talking too fast. Your voice should be clearly audible to the audience and neither talk too loud nor too soft.

 

Give appropriate facial expression while talking with the staff members: Facial expressions play an important role, so while talking with the staff member use nodding for giving approval of something, smiling, looking intent or concerned.

 

Increase knowledge about other cultures: For a successful business, it is very necessary that businesspersons should respect other cultures. You should learn to widen your knowledge about other cultures. This helps you to understand their nonverbal messages e.g. If you go for a making a deal in Germany.  In Germany, forming a thumb and forefinger into a circle for success would be in deep trouble. However, this is not considered same in other countries.
