Ways to improve your communication skills.

提高溝通技能的方法。

Mind Your Body Language

肢體語言也很重要

The body does not need a verbal language to express itself. It can communicate via mannerisms, expressions and physical conduct. When it comes to effective communication skills, excellent verbal content is coupled with sound physical expression to render an engaging effecton the audiences. Animated gestures, lively expressions and physical mannerisms are excellent ways of conveying a given idea. A deadpan expression only conveys a lacklustre attitude and boredom, whereas an animated front is more engaging to witness. If you want to improve your communication skills, you should start observing others while they speak. Talk to yourself and check your body language in the mirror to a scertain your flaws and improve upon them.

肢體語言的表達本身并不需要口頭語言。它可以通過個人的特殊動作習慣、表情和肢體行為來完成溝通。有效的溝通需要口頭交流與肢體語言的完美配合，從而在聽眾身上達到驚人的效果。要傳達給定的信息，豐富的姿勢、生動的表情加上肢體語言是極好的傳達途徑。面無表情的表達只會導致聽眾的厭倦，反之多變的表情會得到很好的效果。想提高自己的交際技巧，你應該多觀察別人的說話方式。多和自己對話，對著鏡子練習自己的肢體語言，找出自己的缺點并加以改正。
