Jan Hargrave

Author and Behavioral Authority on Nonverbal Communication

Persuasion and Influence Utilizing Effective Nonverbal Communication in Every Conversation

It’s a scientific fact that a person’s body gestures give away their true intentions. Actually, over ninety percent of all face-to-face communication is nonverbal; thus, the silent messages of the body often reveal more than the spoken word in conveying true feelings and attitudes. Jan Hargrave, behavioral authority on nonverbal communication, and author of Let Me See Your Body Talk, Freeway of Love, Judge the Jury, Strictly Business Body Language, and Poker Face, helps you improve your communication skills to master the art of making a positive first impression and build stronger relationships by establishing rapport through utilizing the body language of trust, inclusion and warmth

It’s a scientific fact that a person’s body gestures give away their true intentions.

Jan Hargrave, behavioral authority on nonverbal communication, and author of Let Me See Your Body Talk, Freeway of Love, Judge the Jury, Strictly Business Body Language, and Poker Face,helps you improve your communication skills through learning how to:

  • Master the art of making a positive first impression during the initial 7 seconds of meeting someone.
  • Read your counterparts’ body language and identify how your own gestures and expressions support or sabotage your bargaining position.
  • Add more effective gestures, postures, and expressions to your leadership repertoire to express your ideas in a positive, professional manner.
  • Build stronger relationships and quickly establish rapport through utilizing the body language of trust, inclusion and warmth.
  • Channel your gender’s natural body language inclinations for improved leadership results.
  • Detect the specific gestures and “micro-expressions” of deception and secretiveness.
  • Identify which nonverbal signals project confidence, candor, and interest during virtual conversations and when guiding future generations of workers.
