A Leader’s Most Influential
Skill For Times Of Change
Unleash Your Higher Power
http://www.uqpower.com.au/higher-power-leaders
Introduce yourself to someone:
Like it’s a waste of your time
Let’s get social first
Introduce yourself to someone else:
By being over the top trying to impress
them – in a phoney, artificial way.
(think car salesman)
Fake It
Introduce yourself to someone else:
Like they are your long lost best friend
Lead With Love
You just used your most influential skill
www.UQPower.com.au
The world of business is facing time of
VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity
and ambiguity) like never before.
What does it take for leaders to create a
successful, sustainable business during times of
change and still bring their people
happily
along
on the
journey?
It takes powerful influence.
The most powerful influence tool at your disposal is not
words, data, money, the carrot or the stick.
The Most Influential Leadership Skill
The most influential and
valuable skill you have is
your body language.
Become fluent in body
language as your
second language and
navigate change
successfully.
LEADERSHIP SUPER POWER
Change happens on an emotional level NOT an
intellectual level.
Common sense, logic and data won’t get people
to sign up for the next round of restructures.
Great leaders understand this.
Higher Power Leaders work with and
communicate through body language –
the language of emotions.
BODY COMMUNICATES EMOTION
Neurologist and author Antonio Damasio proves
unconscious mental processes drive our decision
making. Then we use logic to justify our emotional
choice.
Emotion is at the heart of change.
EMOTION > LOGIC
SCIENCES PROVES IT
- 7% of meaning is in the words that are spoken
-38% of meaning is paralinguistic – the way we say it
-55% of meaning is in body language & expression
WHY YOU MUST BECOME FLUENT
IN A SECOND LANGUAGE
“When it comes to body language,
there are some who have better vocabularies
than others.”

5 MUST LEARN SKILLS
in body language
DURING TIMES OF CHANGE
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
PersuasiveProductive
Physiology Psychology
1 THE BODY LANGUAGE OF VISION
As a leader you make strong, confident entrances.
You stride through the workplace with purpose,
head held high, straight back, calmly and
confidently.
People see that you are
comfortable in yourself and
therefore with the direction
you are leading the team.
VISION = PERSUASION
VISION GIVES PEOPLE
CONFIDENCE TO FOLLOW
Assume a wide neutral stand. Relax and remove
any tension, lower shoulders, straighten back.
Smile (no frowning). Arms neutral by your side.
It’s important we get this
right. Things must change
around here.
VISION BODY LANGUAGE PRACTICE
2 IQ BODY LANGUAGE
Eye contact is a powerful motivator to encourage
speaking because people feel they have your
attention and interest.
EG: sitting with two staff – give them equal eye
contact and they will take turns speaking.
Give one less eye contact and they will speak less.
Try it out when networking!
IQ = ‘EYE Q’
IQ = PRODUCTIVE
As the leader, your body language sets the tone for any
meeting.
If you look down, check your watch, read phone
messages it will shut down the sharing and stifle
collaboration resulting in reduced productivity
and creativity.
GIVE ‘EM LOVE EYES
To ensure you stay connected with your team and those
around you maintain steady eye contact.
Not doing so will make them feel unloved and unimportant
or that you don’t care or have something to hide. So give
them lots of eye attention.
(Just don’t stare without blinking, that’s creepy!)
Your non-verbal communication skills are MORE
IMPORTANT than your verbal skills.
So long as you are mindful and ensure there is
congruence – ie: your words and your body
match.
WORDS = BODY
3 PHYSIOLOGY – BODY LANGUAGE
You have to #startwithU by believing in U and your message.
If you don’t believe, no one else will because your body will tell
them so - every one can spot a phoney!
THE BODY NEVER LIES
Knee to knee, toe to toe is best when it comes to engaging
and influencing so face people directly. Even a quarter turn
away creates a barrier signalling a lack of interest and
causes the speaker to shut down.
Take away anything that
blocks your view or forms
a barrier between you
and the other people.
FULL FRONTAL IS BEST
4 EQ BODY LANGUAGE
IT IS CRITICAL FOR
LEADERS TO
understand and
manage emotions
DURING TIMES OF CHANGE
www.UQPower.com.au
Emotional contagion
CAN MAKE OR BREAK
CHANGE EFFORTS
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
www.UQPower.com.au
Emotional contagion
IS FIRST AND FOREMOST A
NON-VERBAL PROCESS
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
Are You “Batteries Not Included” Leader?
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
AKA a “Drainer” of energy?
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
Are you “Batteries Included” Leader?
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
AKA a “Giver” of Energy?
UQPower.com.au#StartWithU
www.UQPower.com.au
Emotions = energy
in motion
When a leader is afraid, angry or
low on battery their body language
spreads fear like a virus affecting
everyone’s moods, attitudes and
lowering energy.
When a leader is happy, open and
buoyant people will feel energised,
positive and open to change.
Their energy is
increased.
Neurologist Richard Restak’s contagion
phenomenon findings mean that
emotions are infectious
You can catch the
mood of other
people just by
being near
them.
www.UQPower.com.au
Emotional leads tend to flow from the
most powerful person
in the group to the others
– which means
the LEADER
sets the mood!
www.UQPower.com.au
If your people are demonstrating
absenteeism, presenteeism, or
challenging behaviour you need to
consider your own
emotional cues.
What messages are you sending to
your people?
TOXIC WORKPLACES are caused by
chronic dysfunctional emotional
energy patterns and unhealthy ways of
communicating and relating to each
other.
Is your workplace culture going
down the drain?
To repair a toxic workplace you have
to approach ‘healing’ it through many forms of energy – and
importantly through EQ BODY LANGUAGE.
DID YOU KNOW?
At any one time approximately 76% of employees are looking for a new job or
getting ready to walk out the door.
3 TOP REASONS FOR STAFF TURNOVER
1 – No development opportunity, I’m bored
2 – I don’t like my boss , not comfortable
3 – Not paying enough, I don’t feel valued
A LEADER’S EQ REALLY MATTERS!
A 2020 WORKPLACE WILL NEED TO
PROVIDE AN INTENSELY
personalised, unique, social
learning experience
TO ATTRACT,
DEVELOP
AND ENGAGE
EMPLOYEES
ACROSS ALL
GENERATIONS &
GEOGRAPHIES.
HOW ARE YOU IMPACTING YOUR
PEOPLE WITH THE NON-VERBAL
MESSAGES YOU SEND?

  3. 1.35pm Building Rapport and Engaging People  The rapport phase is the opening of any successful facilitation or presentation. Quality interactions are only achieved when are truly engaging and building rapport with your audience. Building rapport and creating a climate of trust and understanding allows you to prepare the audience for the delivery of your content. Rapport is vital in all forms of communication and essential for conducting effective presentations and facilitating successful workshops, sessions, group work. In the role of facilitator, your task is to persuade and influence so the audience prefers your solution or idea over what they may have been doing in the past. John Grinder and Richard Bandler researched how expert communicators were able to build rapport. They found that people like people who are like themselves. Rapport is established by pacing. Pacing is the process of matching and mirroring the verbal, para-verbal and body language of the other person to create likeness and similarities which creates rapport. Being in rapport means being alike both verbally and non verbally. Professor Albert Mehrabian has pioneered the understanding of communications since the 1960s – today he spends his time researching, writing, and consulting as Professor of Psychology at UCLA. His work featured strongly in establishing early understanding of body language and non-verbal communications. His research provided the basis for the widely quoted and often much over-simplified statistic for the effectiveness of spoken communications. Here is a more precise (and necessarily detailed) representation of Mehrabian's findings than is typically cited or applied: 7% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is in the words that are spoken. 38% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is paralinguistic (the way that the words are said). 55% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is in facial expression (and body language). The main thing to remember is that the formula applies to communications of feelings and attitudes not just any communication. One of the best ways to build rapport if you don’t know the attendees is to use universals. Universals are statements that are ‘true’ for all members in the audience, general statements that are universally accepted. Here you are setting the scene or the big picture. For example: We live in a world that….. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where…..? Have you noticed how ……..is happening more often today?
  4. 11.50am VISUAL BODY LANGUAGE Show teenage Katy Perry Clip Make eye contact 1.50pm Neutral Body Stance Practical There are no right or wrong stances for presenting or pitching. However it is important to remember that your body is a large communication vessel for sending messages to your audience and for switching your own brain on. In order to make sure the audience trusts you you need to build resonance!! AND you want your pitch to be meaningful and profitable. Imagine therefore the audience is in pain and your role in pitching is to teach them something but leave a void that they will need and want to pay for to have Enigma fix.
