You Say More Than You Think

More about the book

Do you want to be bulletproof at work, secure in your relationships, and content in your own skin? It's crucial to understand what your body communicates to others. Unfortunately, much of the advice from body language experts is misleading, potentially harming your interactions. With a blend of sass and expertise, Janine Driver shares the skills she honed during her fifteen years as a body-language expert at the ATF. Her 7-day plan and quick solutions offer numerous body language fixes to enhance your interpersonal effectiveness. She reveals techniques that are often kept secret and dispels common myths, such as the belief that more eye contact impresses others. In reality, the direction of your belly button can convey greater interest. Additionally, the "steeple" gesture is often misused; Driver introduces alternative gestures like the Basketball Steeple and the A-OK Two-Fingered Steeple, which project power without aggression. Furthermore, while happy individuals may seem to command attention by smiling before introductions, research indicates that Alpha leaders smile after shaking hands and hearing names. In a world where first impressions are vital, this guide will empower you to communicate effectively and make a lasting impact.
