Description
From interviews to dates, the boardroom to the stage, being aware of the non-verbal signals you, and others, send can have a huge impact on your relationships and success in life - for better or worse.
This fun and friendly guide will show you how to 'read' the body language of others, and how to project the right signals, so you can manage the impression you give to others. Full of real-world and pop-cultural examples, practical tips and strategies, and underpinned by principles from psychological and social experiments, you'll learn how to use and interpret non-verbal messages to put your best face, and body, forwards.
