What Your Body Says (And How to Master the Message): Inspire, Influence, Build Trust, and Create Lasting Business Relationships

Body language is one of our most powerful business tools, yet one that is painfully underused. Paying attention to the nuanced details of the subconscious language can make a tremendous difference in the way you are perceived. Sharon Sayler, a Certified Group Dynamics and Behavioral coach, teaches people how to train their bodies to reflect what their words are saying in What Your Body Says (and How to Master the Message) (Wiley; August 2010). 

While our mouth might be saying one thing in meetings, interviews, presentations, and other high-stakes interactions, but what about the rest of you? When you're trying to get a message across, does your body and attitude reflect your enthusiasm or detract from it? If you want your verbal and nonverbal signals working together seamlessly for maximum impact, What Your Body Says gives you the tools to fully master your messages. 

Sayler helps people choreograph both verbal and nonverbal content to communicate with confidence and clarity. Any manager or leader, who is serious about leading from influence and not power, knows that the one thing they do more than anything else is communicate.  What Your Body Says enables you to: 

• Become aware of the signals you are sending—intentionally and unintentionally—and their effects
• Understand and use gestures to convey intention, relationships, information, influence, and expectations
• Understand and use your gestures, eyes, tone of voice, and other nonverbals
• Combine these different tools into a new, highly effective communication style 

What Your Body Says offers a new perspective on how to communicate confidence with passion, persuasion, credibility and candor. Sayler will open your eyes and lead you through a clear and simple process to communicate, verbally and nonverbally, to build trust and solid relationships. What Your Body Says combines the latest research and philosophical concepts with useful tools, strategies and techniques drawn from Sharon's intense study of how language, both verbal and nonverbal, impacts people's lives and emotions. 

True communication goes beyond words, and great communicators use every tool they have to deliver their message. What Your Body Says will get you to the next level in your business and personal communication style. Apply the concepts in this powerful guide, and the results—stronger relationships, influential leadership, and enthusiastic responses—will start coming in loud and clear!
