Nonverbal Communication
Anna Ellsworth
What does nonverbal communication say about people?
When crossing your arms its more likely for some one to think you are hostile. They way someone stands can also give someone the impression that you are not open to communicating. Even facial expressions and where your hands are at like your face can tell you if someone is in a bad mood, happy or even sad, the placement of your hand like them having them on your hips can mean you are being defensive.
Body Language
Body language can say a lot about a person, such as if they are happy,sad, bored, if they are interested in what the person is talking about.
What the percentage is!
38% is tone of voice, 55% is nonverbal and 7% is spoken words. We use nonverbal more because of cell phones and others.
Eye contact
Eye contact is one of the hardest things to do. some may get intimidated by eye contact.
Dressing
By the way someone dressing can tell you a lot. If dressed in suit and tie maybe could be going in for a job or works in higher standard in an office, if uniform maybe at a fast food place, any way a person dresses can tell you almost everything.
