Nonverbal communication has been defined as communication without words. • It includes apparent behaviors such as facial expressions, eyes, touching, and tone of voice, as well as less obvious messages such as dress, posture and spatial distance between two or more people.
Body movements. • Body movement is • important part of successful communication; • it reinforces, emphasizes,and clarifies verbally expressed ideas.
Gestures. • A gesture is a natural movement of any part of the body that conveys a thought or emotion or reinforcesoral expression.
Postures • Postures are used to indicate attitudes, status, affective moods, approval, deception, warmth etc.
Facial expression. • A facial expression results from one or more motions or positions of the muscles of the face. • These movements convey the emotional state of the individual to observers.
Distance. • Public distance • Social distance • Personal distance • Intimate distance
Touch. • Even a handshake tells much about an individual’s character. The human skin has hundreds of thousands of submicroscopic nerve endings, serving as tactual receptors and detecting pressure, temperature, texture, pain.
Dress. • Clothing indicates a great amount of information. It identifies sex, age, socioeconomic class, status, role, group membership, personality or mood, physical climate, and time in history.
Attitudes most often associated with clothing relate to : • A desire to conform • A desire for self-expression • A desire for aesthetic satisfaction • Prestige values • The desire for social participation • Physical comfort • Economy
Conclusion • Even the best verbal communication skills are not sufficient to create and sustain successful relationships. Good relationships require the ability to communicate with emotional intelligence.
