Part 2: The Power of Nonverbal Communication
Studies show that during communication interactions:• Less than 20% of the
message is verbally communicated
• While more than 80% of the message is nonverbal
The Power of Nonverbal Communication
Thin-slicing is what we do when we first see someone.We take a very quick snapshot of who we think they are. We gauge very quickly, in less than a second:
• Do we think that they are credible?• Do we think they are competent?• Do we think that they are charismatic?
And we do that very, very quickly based on very few cues, almost always nonverbal.
