Our seminar "How do I affect others?" shows you which factors of your verbal and non-verbal communication have an effect on your environment. The most important elements are described below:
Gestures: Your charisma unfolds, among other things, through the totality of all your gestures. This includes the movements of your arms, hands and head. Your counterpart often unconsciously compares your gestures with the verbal part of your communication in order to characterise you as an authentic or inauthentic person.
Facial expressions: They often unfold their effect in seconds, as they are created by rapid successive movements of the facial muscles. It is more difficult to influence and control.
Voice: In addition to the non-linguistic aspects, the voice plays an acoustic role in your charisma. It is characterised by pitch, volume and melody. It contributes to your dialogue in a more differentiated way than non-verbal communication.
These three factors, in addition to the content of the conversation, shape the way you are perceived by other people.
