Description
Non-verbal communication (NVC) goes far beyond the simple observation of body language, encompassing a complex and ancient form of subconscious communication that is constantly at play. This form of communication includes everything from physical gestures and spatial distance to bodily orientation and movement, as well as the subtle micro-expressions and vocal paralinguistics that convey meaning beneath the surface.
This comprehensive exploration of NVC begins with an in-depth look at its true nature and how to develop it, covering traditional aspects like facial expressions and gestures, along with the often-overlooked cues found in auditory and written communication. You’ll learn about the origins of this ancient form of transmission, the significant role that paralinguistics plays, and the impact of social media on how we communicate today. Additionally, you’ll uncover the surprising truth about how much of our communication is non-verbal and gain insights into the art of detecting lies, realising that while people can deceive with words, the mind itself never lies.
