Tips for using or observing non-verbal communication skills effectively

Today I am going to explain you various aspects to be considered while using nonverbal communication skills. Following tips will help for using these skills effectively.

·       Pay attention to irregularities. Nonverbal communication should rely on what is being said. Person’s body language should not mismatch with what he is saying. For instance, are they telling you “yes” while shaking their head no?

·       Look at nonverbal communication signals as a whole. Don’t concentrate too much on a single nonverbal cue. Consider all of the nonverbal signals.

Assessing Non Verbal Signals
Facial Expression	Expressions on the face :Expressive or unexpressive  Emotionally present or filled with interest.
Postures and Gestures	Body movements:stiff or relaxed. Shoulders: tensed or raised
Touch	If the physical contact is appropriate or inapproriate.
Eye Contact	Eye contact: If it is made(overly intense or just right)
Time and Pace	Is there is easy flow of information back anf forth?  Non verbal are coming quickly or slowly?
