Winning Body Language. Control the conversation, command attention, & convey the right message without saying a word. Mark Bowden<\/a> 2010. ISBN 9780071700573.\u00a0 We spend a lot of time on writing the best content.\u00a0 Yet, the author states, in communication the audience is paying attention in the following split; 7% the words, 38% the voice and 55% the body language.\u00a0 Makes one think?\u00a0 Now I know why I did not believe that CEO saying that everything is just fine, when his body betrayed him.\u00a0 Bowden is an expert at on body language, having a strong background in performance and theatre. His anecdotes on projects he has taken on are fascinating. The core of the book is bang on the topic , finding a wide range of applicability. As we do many webinars, I found\u00a0 his tips on those,\u00a0 very useful, as he tells you exactly how to fight the talking head style.\u00a0\u00a0 I always wondered why Steven Coveys presentations were so “truthful”.\u00a0 I also appreciated the comment on getting away from behind a lectern etc – as removing a barrier. Lots here, a good read and it is clearly written<\/p>\n
