NMI5050 - Leadership, Balance and Composure - Workshop 1: Posture and Gesture in Influence

Presenter:  Colleen Culley

Have you noticed distinctions between posture and gesture?  Perhaps how postures reflect underlying assumptions and commitments?  Or how posture signals confidence that will build loyalty and trust in your leadership?  Or maybe how others around the table will take a posture on an issue and use it to attract support?  Or how gestures can illustrate literally the thoughts in someone's head?

We will begin this class by looking at the fundamentals of interpreting non-verbal cues based on posture and gesture relationships.  From there we will work with posture and gesture to practice communicating with clarity to get results.

STUDENTS MUST TAKE A MINIMUM OF 2 OF THE 3 WORKSHOPS TO GET CREDIT OF 0.1.
