Description
Did you know that about 15% of our success comes from our technical knowledge, and around 85% is due to our social and emotional skills?
Moreover, we only use a small part of our true physical, emotional, and mental capacity.
Compared to what we should be, we're only halfway there.
We live within our fears, paradigms, and comfort zones, possessing qualities we don't usually use or strive to develop.
And the goal of this course is to uncover untapped talents and inspire you to develop them into habits that yield positive results in your life.
According to research, body language represents 65% of communication, while tone of voice accounts for 25% and words just 10%.
We are typically good at fulfilling our duties as students, professionals, or entrepreneurs. Even in our areas of expertise, we can be experts.
However, one day we will encounter situations where our specialty isn't as important, and our ability to adapt, direct, negotiate, lead change, and promote collaboration becomes essential. That’s what this course is about.
So, if you want to transform your leadership skills and take them to a whole new level, don’t hesitate to enroll.
In this course, you will discover the fascinating world of body language.
Imagine having the ability to communicate warmth, confidence, authority, or empathy through your posture, gestures, and expressions.
Imagine projecting a more secure image of yourself by being aware of your body language and how it can be perceived by others.
Leadership and Body Language is a comprehensive course divided into sections designed to maximize your learning.
In the first section, "The Basics," you will be able to identify when body language is in sync or in conflict with words, improving your ability to correctly interpret the intentions of others.
You'll discover what the face, legs, hands, arms, torso, and posture communicate.
At the end of this section, we'll do a practical analysis of body language in a real-life situation.
The second section focuses on the connection between body language and leadership skills.
Here, you'll learn how body language can influence negotiation situations.
We will prepare you to facilitate communication through emotions, and you'll learn to promote an environment of collaboration and teamwork.
At the end of this section, we will learn to identify the main signs of deception through a practical analysis of a real case.
In the third section, "Differences in Body Language,"
You'll learn to read and adapt your body language in different contexts.
We will address gender and cultural differences to motivate you to promote respect, diversity, and inclusion.
We will prepare you to master the main international business behavior protocols to work effectively with teams from different cultures.
You'll learn the most common power poses and discover how practicing them can help you change your mood, behavior, and the image you project.
