6 Ways to Look More Confident During a Presentation

6 Ways to Look More Confident During a Presentation 13 Jun 2022 --- Research says using these 6 persuasive body-language positions during a talk can lead to success. CHAPTERS 00:00 Your ideas are important–but so is your body language. 00:47 Position 1: The box 01:10 Position 2: Holding the ball 01:25 Position 3: Pyramid hands 01:52 Position 4: Wide stance 02:05 Position 5: Palms up 02:22 Position 6: Palms down The next time you give a presentation, try to have it recorded, then review the video with the sound off, watching only your body language. How did you stand and gesture? Did you use any of these positions? If not, think about how you might do so the next time you’re in front of an audience, or even just speaking to your boss or a big client. Practice in front of a mirror, then with friends, until they feel natural. Non-verbal communication won’t necessarily make or break you as a leader, but it might help you achieve more successful outcomes.
