Non-verbal communication: radiate competence

Communication is the be-all and end-all of a functioning company. But people often forget that non-verbal communication is just as important. What if you have to announce something delicate and your body says something different from the words you speak? You could come across as untrustworthy, which could have fatal consequences, especially in a crisis. Having your body "under control" is not easy, which is why training in body language can be very helpful in order to be able to use non-verbal communication carefully and skillfully.

On the large education portal Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch you will find various providers of seminars, courses or training that will have an excellent effect on your personal non-verbal communication. Ask the schools of your choice to send you detailed course programs.

Questions and answers

Non-verbal communication, i.e. non-linguistic communication, often referred to as body language in everyday life, encompasses much more than the mere language of the body. Non-verbal communication examples include facial expressions, gestures, proxemics (closeness and distance), posture, habitus (appearance and appearance), timing and ideomotor skills (uncontrollable physical processes such as pulse, breathing, twitching, sweat, red cheeks).

For many companies, it is important that their employees are not only personable, but also convincing. This is because customers need to be convinced quickly, especially in the sales force, and they need a strong and confident presence and the feeling that they are not being put at a disadvantage by their counterparts. This is why some training providers and schools also offer seminars for companies on non-verbal communication, in which they learn how to use their facial expressions, posture and gestures to work on their appearance and appear more competent.

Try out the following non-verbal communication exercises:

  • Eye contact as a partner exercise
    • Hold a conversation, but avoid eye contact
    • Swap roles
    • Having a conversation with eye contact again
    • Exchange experiences
  • Different positions on the perception of communication
    • One person lies down and the other stands during communication
    • One person lies and the other sits
    • Role reversal
    • Exchange of experiences

Using body language in a targeted manner and using non-verbal communication to appear more convincing, credible and interesting is not as difficult as many people imagine. You just need to know what is important and what methods you can use to emphasize what you are saying. In order to achieve this, some extremely interesting seminars are offered that will enable you to captivate your audience. The different focal points of the individual courses help you to decide on the right seminar, for example to conduct more successful negotiations, to appear more convincing and authentic as a politician, to appear competent as a lecturer or speaker or to score points in job interviews.

As a rule, training providers offer seminars on non-verbal communication that last one to two days, although sometimes they can last longer, but in such cases they usually represent professional training or private training.

Verbal communication refers to the use of words to convey messages. It can be spoken or sung, loud or soft, verbal or computer-generated. Non-verbal communication refers to any type of communication that takes place without words. Verbal and non-verbal communication are therefore fundamentally different.

A good example of non-verbal communication is when you don't meet the person you were expecting on a blind date. In most cases, you can't hide this so well from nervousness and disappointment that the other person doesn't notice. For most people, non-verbal communication takes place completely automatically alongside verbal communication. Only actors or professional speakers are able to use their posture, gestures and facial expressions to support the effect of their words.

The target group for a course in non-verbal communication are people who want to take a closer look at the impact of their non-verbal communication. This can also be important for professional impact, e.g. for managers in business or employees in education, administration and security areas (migration, police, justice, etc.).

"Communication Body Language" helps people to better understand the overall situation and thus to better adapt the content of the conversation and the intonation of the voice to the situation. Body language is the best interpretation of the behavioral psychology of individuals and groups. That is why body language is so important for us humans.

The non-verbal communication teaching material includes the following topics:

  • Know your own body language Use paraverbal and non-verbal signals effectively
  • Learning to see and understand the non-verbal signals of others
  • Recognizing feelings and emotions from body language
  • Creating moods: using the voice purposefully
  • Recognize non-verbal signal patterns and anticipate and control the course of communication
  • Use non-verbal communication channels such as gestures, touch, spatial distance and vocal characteristics
  • Using non-verbal means of expression consciously and with the right timing

"Non-verbal meaning" is the opposite of verbal meaning. Verbal communication refers to everything that is spoken or written with words. It is therefore about what is actually said or written. In non-verbal communication, you send non-verbal signals to the other person via the various communication channels, which tell them something about your feelings, thoughts and emotions through your body language.

When you communicate with someone, you are not just telling them something through the spoken word (verbal communication). An example of verbal communication is a normal conversation in which you ask how the other person is doing. So in the style of: "Hello, how are you?". But there is also non-verbal communication.

"The tried and tested paired with the new" is the recipe for success that works in all situations. The past few years have shown that the world of work is confronted with challenges that companies and people can only master if procedures, solutions, methods and skills are adapted. Existing knowledge and skills must therefore be supplemented with new knowledge, different skills and abilities than before. It also requires the courage to rethink or even abandon the familiar.

This is exactly how we have put together the training program for you: You will find tried and tested topics as well as adaptations and new content that reflect the demands of the professional and business world. Continuing education, further training that is practical and up-to-date, passed on by the best in their field, is of central importance in order to survive the major changes.
