Your Movements Say As Much As Your Words with Ritu Chander [Confidence Series]: Podcast Ep. 130
Subscribe to the podcast!
We all know that non-verbal communication can be as important as our words, whether we’re talking with a person one-on-one or speaking in front of an audience.
Did you know that our body movement – our kinetic energy – is something different from what we traditionally think of regarding body language and it has an impact too?
My guest is Ritu Chander, the founder of The Next Move LLC, which is a decision-making consultancy.
In this episode, Ritu and I talk about:
- How she became interested in body movement
- The history of movement analysis
- The subconscious behaviors we do
- How our body movement reflects our cognitive processing and how we make decisions
- The difference between looking at body language and kinetic energy
- As speakers, how our body movement can impact the audience subconsciously
- Why it’s important to change up our body movement, gestures, and voice when we’re speaking
- Why we want to come across as approachable and warm – and what to do if we feel like that’s not our natural personality
This episode is part of our Confidence Series, episodes 127 through 131.
