Non-Verbal Language

  • Eyes

    The presenter should be looking at every face in the audience,
    not talking over their heads or out of the windows, or intoning
    in the upper left-hand corner of the room.


  • Hand Gesture

    Hand gesture will send clear, powerful visual message into the
    other unconscious audiences.


  • Feet

    The recommended position of the feet is (for men) the heels
    from 20 to 25 cm parts, for (women) the heels about 10 cm
    parts, with the toes pointing out slightly, making a 'V' shape.


  • Be Natural

    It is advised to talk TO and not AT the audience.


  • Mannerisms

    Eradicate off putting habits. Scratchiness, rubbings playing
    with fringe, etc., are unacceptable.


  • Pace

    Watch the listeners' reactions. Adjust the speech pace and
    explanation to environment.


  • No Showing Back

    Never turn your back on your listeners. It's rude and in any
    event can lose control of the audience when fail to face them
    directly.
