Understanding Body Language
Body language is an important part of our daily communication. And sometimes it might not be as easy to understand and we might let ourselves think. Especially when we work in an international environment, gestures of hands and arms as well as facial expressions maybe different depending on the cultural backgrounds of different people.
If you want to persuade a person from another country, may it be to get them to join a team, do work or just believe in your project, often enough the way we use language is different in the different cultures. Interestingly though, body language is something that is present in all cultures and we all have a sub-concious way of reading it.
Getting to know this language better, and not just read it sub-conciously, but actively use it to get people on your side is a secure way to improve your career and personal relationships.
It is not unusual, that people don’t notice that their movements and expressions are linked to their feelings, topics they speak about and/or reactions towards the things happening around them. Often we even mimic and mirror the people we are talking too, adapting to their body language to make the situation more comfortable. But automatically and subconsciously, we only do that to a certain degree. We do not want to totally diminuish our own body language.
Learning how to control it and how to even make other feel comfortable can be a major advantage when decisions have to be taken or leaders have to emerge in a group.
Knowing ones own body language well, and knowing how to understand others, can help you in your career and your personal life. Luckily, it is not hard to get control over it, although it needs some practice and guidance.
