A very useful introduction to body language in work. I have already decided to subtly change my handshake, and will use this as a reference in the future. Thank you for sharing this.
Another EXCELLENT video by Peter Clayton. I have studied many aspects of body language in business over the years and can always rely on Peter to provide superb insights, hints and tips, all backed up by real life experience.
This is an excellent introduction to body language. Very helpful tips for enhancing daily interactions. I've been very impressed with other training material that I've seen of Peter's so I was particlarly pleased to find this clip. Well done!!
This is quite possibly the best explanation I've found on body language. However, I will comment that most of us have grown up with being told that strong eye contact (without looking psychotic) is good and portrays confidence. I believe at this point, people are more used to eye contact and many won't feel uncomfortable by it due to frequent experience. However, I agree that you notice if someone is not used to it and seems intimidated. At this point it is a good to look away periodically.
when I want to shake someone's hand I often turn my palm up because I always thought people would feel more comfortable that way... but I guess I'll stop doing that from now on xD great video btw... simple to understand and really informative!
Just came across this great video. Thank you for uploading it, Peter. And having seen your reply to EE Coaching, I took the liberty of using it for my small group of kids who come to my house for private tutoring. I promise you, I'm not making money on it at all... Thank you in advance for your 'permission' :-)
Sorry for the delay, it's my first day back in the office. What you suggest makes a lot of sense and I'm writing a an explanation that I will put up on UA-cam soon. I will offer a few different ideas that might help. Best wishes -Peter
thanks, very good stuff, at times we usually forget about what our bodies are saying, and it totally gives us away, thanks i'll be more sensitive to my clients...now
HEY There, We was wondering over here about when you talked about Business; talking about or asking questions to see there normal BL then when you go into deeper matters you can tell and be prepared. Well The question is "Whats A Really Good way To Present a good close non-verbally i hear asking and silence, but as far as Your Ideas on that, over-all Would be helpful because of the way you explain and express it...
the video is useful, I remember a Girl who is looking at me often that makes me feel uncomfortable, she seems mocking look... at leats I am not wandering anymore hehehe
I have a question on hand shake. What are your thoughts about a body builder who lift heavy weights? When he shake hands he usually keep is very soft because he think he is not sure how much pressure is too much for a normal person...In that case do you think the point of view of the normal person change? so does it mean that there is different signs for body builders?? - thanks!
May I suggest a personal opinion that we don't think in words? Many of us say that we know what we mean but can't explain it. Thus we have an idea but putting into words is a separate process. Just an idea.
At last, a scientific reason as to why my housemate's ridiculous tendency to stand square on and stare when not even saying anything makes me dislike him so much, almost feel a bit aggressive towards him. I wonder if something's not right about this guy. Once when I was coming home from work he laughed and said "I walked and I STILL got home before you!". I laughed back and said "What a loser". He actually followed me into my room and said "how does that make me a loser?". So irritating.

You give the impression of being a very harmless person because of your raised inner eyebrows.

body language has a bad name as it seems mostly about tricks to manipulate people, I didn't have this impression with this video however, thank you
wow

This is really useful information can this also be done over the phone even if you cant see the person how can this be learnt ?
I always asked my office staff to smile before they answered the phone. It made a big difference in how potential customers perceived our staff.
Thanks a lot for this. Very helpful.
Thank you
