Online: Body language

In this nonverbal communication course, you'll learn that body language expresses a lot about how someone feels and what he or she thinks. Body language is personal, but it adds a certain value to your verbal message. And the other person receives that message both verbally and nonverbally. When your voice and body language align with what you're trying to make clear, this contributes to your communication towards the other person. This is what you will learn in this learning journey. Make sure that what you say comes across in your body language and tone. Make sure that all aspects of your communication are aligned with each other, in other words, congruence. You'll learn that when you are able to communicate congruently, people will often understand you better and more quickly.

In this body language training, you'll observe both yourself and others to experience the influence of body language. You'll also practice your nonverbal communication skills. You'll watch and listen to the body language of others to get a better feeling for what they actually mean. And you are going to take a look at your own body language and find ways to improve it. The exercises focus on active listening and communicating with your body in a way that you feel comfortable with. In short, you'll be communicating more effectively in no time!
