Does body language REALLY account for anything?
Answer:
yes, only 10% of what your saying is coming from your mouth.
30% is tone.
60% is body language.
you bet it does, when a babe sticks her shoulders back or pushes her butt out that says a lot in anyone's language.
.
It does!
yes, definitely. If you think about it...if you went up to a person with open arms and a smile its obvious your happy to see them, if you went up to them with folded arms theres something up!
Body language is very important to know how to read. Specially if you are in the customer service industry. Body language sometimes speak lowder than words. Believe it or not but even you speak with your body at times.
Absolutely!
Just try watching people at work or in a bar - wherever - bet you can see who likes/dislikes/respects/disres... who!
If you can't see it - there are college course for communication which go into that quite a bit (UK - no idea elsewhere though - sorry!)
Body language means a lot. But there are people who have mastered it and can act. I'm no master, but well on my way. Very useful for business purposes.
Yes, people can act. However, everyone at times displays unconscious behaviors unknowingly. This fact makes body language important and relevant. If you study body language you learn to 'read' this behavior.
Yes. There are subtle clues that even the most practiced "faker" will miss. "Body language" is involuntary and most people have no control over it.
Read "The Naked Ape" by Desmond Morris.
As one responder stated: "It is good for business". Yes, there are things that can be controlled but to someone who is good at reading others, even the person who practices movements will be dismissed and his real movements identified.
any kind of language is meant of a means of communications... meant to purposefully convey a message. But years of control has made us all contortionists of sort... polite society now political correctness constantly forcing us to hold back what we mean or need to say... so now body language is a distortion of trying to control anger and wanting to say what we mean... We are constantly having to read between the lines... it all depends mostly those who express honestly are the ones who are not misunderstood... I'm one of those that my body language is often accurate because I don't try to hide it... If I'm angry especially you know it...
