What is nonverbal communication?

Nonverbal Communication = Communication without words


Nonverbal communication is a process of communication through
sending and receiving wordless messages.
Verbal Communication
&
Nonverbal communication

Before moving forward, let’s keep in your mind


that verbal communication and nonverbal
communication are interconnected and they
operate together in communication.
Difference between verbal
&
Nonverbal communication
Verbal and non verbal are all types of
communication. But the difference between
them is that we use our voice in verbal
communication and we use body signs in
non-verbal communication.
Importance of Nonverbal Communication

Verbal & nonverbal Communication


plays an important role in how people
interact with one another. People are
using around 35% verbal
communication and 65% nonverbal
communication in daily life.
Nonverbal communication has also
cultural meaning.

“The most important thing in


communication is to hear what isn't
being said.”
Peter F. Drucker
Power of nonverbal communication

Nonverbal communication is
the most powerful form of
communication. More than
voice or even words,
nonverbal communication
helps to create your image in
others mind and even you can
express your emotions and
feelings in front of others,
which you are unable to
express in words.
Form of nonverbal communication
• Eye Contact
• Facial Expressions
• Posture
• Haptics or Touch
• Gestures
• Personal Space
Eye Contact

Eye contact, a key


characteristic of nonverbal
communication, expresses
much without using a single
word. In American culture,
maintaining eye contact
shows respect and indicates
interest.
Eye contact also establish
the nature of a relationship.
Facial Expressions

Facial expressions are


the key characteristics
of nonverbal
communication. Your
facial expression can
communicate
happiness, sadness,
anger or fear.
Posture
Posture and how you carry
your self tells a lot about you.
How you walk, sit, stand or
hold your head not only
indicates your current mood,
but also your personality in
general.
For example, if you cross your
arms while standing, you indicate
that you may be closed off and
defensive. Meanwhile, walking
with your head down and avoiding
eye contact with others may
indicate shyness.
Haptic or Touch

Haptic communication is
communicating by touch.
Touch or Haptics is the
characteristic of nonverbal
communication and used
when we come into physical
contact with other people.
For example: We use handshakes
to gain trust and introduce
ourselves.
Gestures

A gesture is a characteristic
of nonverbal communication
in which visible body actions
communicate particular
message.
Gestures include movement
of the hands, face, or other
parts of the body.
Let see some most common
gestures
Personal space

Personal space is
your "bubble" - the
space you place
between yourself and
others. This invisible
boundary becomes
apparent only when
someone bumps or
tries to enter your
bubble.
