Reading People to Leading People (Advanced Body Language)

Over sixty percent of communication is nonverbal. Experts claim that body language influences first impressions four times more than what you say. Body language is clearly important to all communication, yet very little formal training is available. Effective use and interpretation of body language is a skill that most people believe they have, yet nonverbal cues are often misunderstood. Compounding the problem is the wealth of misinformation Online.  

Zach’s body language program, Reading People to Leading People, leads you through the skills needed to improve personal and professional communication. We help you identify when others are comfortable or uncomfortable, focused or distracted, truthful or deceptive, and feeling secure or even threatened.  

These skills will help you to understand what a person is really thinking, what they really mean, and not just focus simply on the words they say. Your new skills will give you the advantage of improving your personal communication, enhancing team building, providing exceptional customer service, and implementing effective negotiating skills.
