Benefits of Good Communication
Good communication can:
• Reduce conflict
• Strengthen relationships
• Help people adopt ideas
• Increase productivity
• Improve quality of work
• Create a positive and trusting work environment
Nonverbal Communication
What we say without using words – mostly visual cues
Allows people to:
• Reinforce verbal information
• Convey emotional information
• Define or reinforce a relationship
• Provide feedback
• Regulate the flow of communication
When communication is authentic, communication is
congruent.
Incongruence occurs when verbal and nonverbal
communication do not match.
• Verbal communication tends to be sent with intent and can
be strategic.
• Some nonverbal behaviors are harder to control.
Communication Relationship

If nonverbal communication does not match verbal communication,
the “listener” will believe what they see (nonverbal).

Paralinguistics
“The most important thing in communication is hearing
what isn’t said.” – Peter Drucker
Nonverbal communication can act as verbal
communication “punctuation“.
My name is Nancy.
My name is Nancy?
My name is Nancy!
Body Language
Posture sets the tone. Are you:
• Sitting/Standing
• Shaking your head?
Gestures can reinforce what you say
• Wave
• Point
• Head nod
• High fives
Be Aware: The meaning of gestures varies by culture!
Gestures Are Not Universal
Proxemics
Depends on the individual, the situation and culture
The invasion of space can communicate:
• Dominance
• Avoidance
• Indifference
• Aggression
• Affection
How can invasion of personal space effect communication?
How do you tell a person they are invading your space?
Eye Contact
Can be solely used to communicate a nonverbal
message
Conveys a variety of meanings
• Upset
• Redirection
• Interest in subject matter
• Confusion
Three C’s of Nonverbal Communication
Context
Clusters
Congruence
• Environment
• History of
Relationship
• Individual Roles
• Combination of
cues
• How do they fit
together
• Do the words
match the tone
and body
language?
- Beyond Words, Jeff Thompson

Focusing on how to improve communication, this session offers a fun way to punctuate your communication through the targeted use of nonverbal communication skills. Achieve our goals by: Understanding basic rules of verbal and nonverbal communication Identifying techniques to adapt nonverbal communication to produce clearer messages Learning how to reduce potential nonverbal barriers to communication
  3. FIRST ASK: What are some of the costs of poor communication? THEN go into list… http://www.maximumadvantage.com/advantages-of-effective-communication.html
  4. Dr. Albert Mehrabian, author of Silent Messages, conducted several studies on nonverbal communication. He found that 7% of any message is conveyed through words, 38% through certain vocal elements, and 55% through nonverbal elements (facial expressions, gestures, posture, etc). Subtracting the 7% for actual vocal content leaves one with the 93% statistic.
  5. FIRST “C” = congruence Both forms of communication to send messages Verbal uses voice; nonverbal uses body signs Nonverbal communication simply gets a message across without using words http people purposely say things a certain way to try to reach a particular goal. Other times, verbal communication is intentional insofar as it is directed toward another person (Motley, 1990). Although people can botch up what they mean to say, they still have a choice as to whether to utter the words or not. People have difficulty controlling tears in their eyes, fleeting facial expressions of emotion, and vocal anxiety because such behaviors are highly spontaneous. “Of course, some nonverbal communication is strategic. A person might fake a yawn as an excuse to leave a social gathering early or smile as a means of trying to manipulate someone or create a good impression. To further complicate matters, the line between spontaneity and strategy can be blurry. Take the case of emblems. Emblems such as the hitchhiker's thumb or the “OK” gesture are used like words and are therefore strategic. But many facial emblems (see Ekman & Friesen, 1969), such as a sad or a happy face, can be spontaneous or strategic, depending on the situation. In general, however, verbal communication tends to be more strategic, whereas nonverbal communication tends to be more spontaneous.”://www.sagepub.com/edwards/study/materials/reference/77593_4.1ref.pdf
  6. Aren’t going to discuss first four in detail
  7. Speech sounds are affected by: Tone Pitch Volume Inflection Rhythm Rate Can discuss “uptalk” or ending sentences as though they are a question – conveys insecurity about the message. Peter Drucker’s Life and Legacy Peter F. Drucker was a writer, professor, management consultant and self-described “social ecologist,” who explored the way human beings organize themselves and interact much the way an ecologist would observe and analyze the biological world. Hailed by BusinessWeek as “the man who invented management,” Drucker directly influenced a huge number of leaders from a wide range of organizations across all sectors of society. Among the many: General Electric, IBM, Intel, Procter & Gamble, Girl Scouts of the USA, The Salvation Army, Red Cross, United Farm Workers and several presidential administrations. Drucker’s 39 books, along with his countless scholarly and popular articles, predicted many of the major developments of the late 20th century, including privatization and decentralization, the rise of Japan to economic world power, the decisive importance of marketing and innovation, and the emergence of the information society with its necessity of lifelong learning. In the late 1950s, Drucker coined the term “knowledge worker,” and he spent the rest of his life examining an age in which an unprecedented number of people use their brains more than their backs. Throughout his work, Drucker called for a healthy balance—between short-term needs and long-term sustainability; between profitability and other obligations; between the specific mission of individual organizations and the common good; between freedom and responsibility. Drucker’s first major work, The End of Economic Man, was published in 1939. After reading it, Winston Churchill described Drucker as “one of those writers to whom almost anything can be forgiven because he not only has a mind of his own, but has the gift of starting other minds along a stimulating line of thought.”

  11. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/beyond-words/201109/is-nonverbal-communication-numbers-game Non-verbal communication comes through each of these. Our brains process this information, mostly unconsciously, then we formulate opinions about a person. It’s important to remember that all of these combine to create the communication. Trainer note: Use the example of coming into a room with arms crossed… then with arms crossed and teeth chattering – one can signal a bad mood, the other that someone is cold.
