NEVER EVER trust some one elses summary
ALWAYS ALWAYS read the data yourself
after an aborted communication with a virian last night, i was left pondering about body language and speech training.
out there in the big bad world, what tricks do you use to effectively communicate your ideas to others. are we too addicted to online communication now that we have forgotten 'real life' interactions. i'd like to know the specific and conscious kinds of body language some of you may use at work, home or just about any kind of person-to-person interaction. do you raise your voice or lower your voice? do you flail your hands about to make a point? do you make eye contact? do you punctuate sentences with your voice? do you get closer to people when you want them to pay more attention to you? do you believe in 'personal space'? do you crowd someone or corner them when you want to intimidate them? do you show a tinge of anger when you disapprove? do you use different body language when you ask someone for a favour? how do you show that you are not threatening someone etc etc...any thoughts?
paul ekman has a couple of books out on body language, face recognition etc. any other author suggestions?
also...how many here have taken classes for public speaking...been to oratorical competitions or have debated in teams.
