  • Body language, both the speaker's and the audience's, is a powerful form of communication that is difficult to master, especially if the speaker is nervous. This video will teach you how to use your body language effectively, read the audience's body language and what to do when they look bored or disconnected. Use these tools to enhance your nonverbal communication abilities and better connect with your audiences.
    Presented by Stanford graduate students Matt Levy, Colin Bailie, Jeong Joon Ha, and Jennifer Rosenfeld. Created as an exemplary final project in Lecturer JD Schramm's Strategic Communication course.

  • @SirMan48
    @SirMan48 2 года назад +1015

    Body language is a symptom of confidence. Confidence comes from within. Mindfulness, exercise, healthy internal dialogue and a healthy internal relational system is what leads to confidence. Body language comes second. Prioritizing so heavily on how you physically present is incongruent with how you feel if the motivation for it is a lack of confidence. True confidence is accepting that you don't have confidence, and you don't care how people perceive you. Once your self talk and internal dialogue is healthy, your presentation changes and there won't be a need for this akwardness. Imo, most people versed in psychology can probably see through the inauthentic way these two present themselves.

      Although I fully agree with the principle of what you say, how people perceive you is the only focal point of the video. It does not talk about other elements of giving a presentation, like confidence or for example the structure of a presentation.
      You should care how people perceive you in the sense that it should align with the perception you want them to have in order to absorb what you are trying to tell them. As an example, I experienced a presenter that messed up his hair to divert attention from him being nervous. It clearly allowed him to relax more and present his story with confidence. I remember nothing from the story, only his hair. He was confident, the presentation failed due to a lack of physical presentation.
      Long story short: confidence is key, body language too

      I'm a college professor now but in my previous professional incarnations, I was a business analyst who had to spend a lot of time standing up in front of client audiences sometimes telling them things they did not want to hear, which isn't easy. Although I was nervous in my new life as a professor, mentor and guide, I realized that 1) it was only a matter of time, perhaps just minutes, before I somehow managed to do something or say something that will embarrass me, so I decided to own it before it ever even happens. Every time I get up in front of a class, I tell myself, statistically speaking, there's an 70% probability that at some point during the lecture I'm going to make myself look like an idiot, so don't worry about something I can't control. 2) I'm the most knowledgeable person in re the subject matter in the area code. Both thoughts go along way to helping my self-confidence and now I actually find that I love getting up in front of the students and getting the dialogue ball rolling back and forth.

    One tip I’d like to add when engaging your audience is the use of pauses in your speech. A little surprised they didn’t mention this one.
    A pause after an important statement helps emphasize a point you’re trying to make and the longer you wait, the larger the emphasis. It also helps re-engage those members of the audience who may have tuned out or stopped paying attention.

    The fewer gestures at the right times will be more meaningful. Direct eye contact with every person you can get to is also good because it pulls them in one by one. Also, memorizing your PowerPoint so you can refer with a gesture to it instead of looking works. At work sitting around the conference table, this seems to come naturally because whatever everyone says is important to us. Nobody cares about a school presentation but when you’re paid to present work stuff to your coworkers, every person cares. Just IMO ❤️🤟🏻

      Spot on. It's like someone doing a colour by numbers and calling themselves an artist. Body language is picked up on intuitively and we can always tell when someone is trying to do it as opposed to just being themselves. There probably is a way to become someone who uses confident body language but it might be more about working on how you feel about yourself and what you tell yourself as opposed to how you move your arms and body around.

    I've given hundreds of presentations over my career incl. to small audiences, intimate powerful audiences, and to as many as 7,000. I learned "how to speak" from one of the largest companies in the world, while they were in their "early days," and the one thing I learned that I employed in EVERY presentation was not discussed or used here. In fact, watching each of these presenters, incl Dr. Bailie, Ph.D., I felt as though they were terrified because they did NOT hold eye contact, make a point, then move to the next set of eyes. If you want to appear in command and hold the attention of your audience, before you start a word of your presentation, find a person in the audience, look them in the eye and make your point without moving your gaze. Your stare should not last longer than your breath... Then, as you need/take another breath, pause your speech, move your gaze to another person, look them in their eye and speak. Do this the entire presentation and you will average over 4 stars, will be an "in demand" speaker, and you will love public speaking. It disarms and warms the audience (of course, you must have a command of your material).

    Always remember your body language is the first thing that people observe consciously and start judging your authority to speak and confidence. It's easy to learn if anyone wants to build confidence in body language just start today to observe your hand gesture and facial expression.
    Also very important Your Hand gesture, tone, the facial expressions should be aligned properly with what you say.

    They all looked very mechanical is their presentations. I have given talks over my 45 year career in banking, and I am sure I started out like this early in my career. But as the years progressed and I experienced more and more presentations, you come to where you are totally relaxed looking at the audience, conveying your information, making hand movements a part of your talk for emphasis, even making a joke or two along the way. I found that by knowing my topic completely, the information just flowed out with ease. Overall they did a good job and will greatly improve over the years.

    00:00 🗣 Exceptional presentation goes beyond visuals and content; body language plays a crucial role.
    01:12 🙅‍♂ Avoid distracting body language like nervous movements, swaying, and avoiding eye contact.
    03:00 🚶‍♀ Your posture and position are the audience's first impression of you; stand facing them and in a position of strength.
    06:23 ✋ Gestures are powerful communication tools; they aid memory, but ensure they match your message.
    09:29 🤚 Use open palms in gestures for audience compliance; avoid palms-down and finger-pointing gestures.
    12:03 🧐 Engage with your audience by observing their body language, maintaining eye contact, and using techniques like surprise questions.

    Have good posture
    Use gestures to communicate what you're saying (give/show/chop)
    Face who you're talking to rather than your visuals
    Stand in the center of stage/room
    Don't stand near anything distracting
    Be open with your arms/don't keep your hands together
    Don't put your hands in your pockets or on your hips
    Never point your fingers and keep your palms up when gesturing
    Ask questions to keep audience engaged/captivated

      Ironically enough, for me all of their body languages and gestures look extremely uncomfortable and forced. Makes me think on how congruency is important, that is: it's not only about what is the "correct" body language but also about the need that we have to express ourselves and our personalities through or body.
      I often see great public speakers and teachers that have technically "wrong body language" but they feel much more comfortable and natural. Something to take into account.
