Non-verbal communication: 10 tricks for more salary
Actually, it's no secret: WHAT we say is basically not that important. This applies not only to work, but also to parenting, relationships, friendships, lectures, and even life. According to research, 55 percent of us communicate through body language, 38 percent through voice and voice, and just under a meager 7 percent through the content of the verbal message. Nevertheless, one thinks in the end somehow more and more about the WHAT than about the HOW. Especially when it comes to salary, women are often terrible and think that a bit of self-confident talk might undo the nonverbal rumbai. But it does not. At least not if our body says something completely different than "I'm worth more!".
Our 10 tips for a successful nonverbal appearance:
01. HOW TO ENTER A ROOM SAYS MUCH OUT
Even as you enter a room, it says a lot about you. Are you going crouched? Are you chuckling with nervousness? Do you look scared? Do you spend more time than necessary on the doorknob? Just imagine, you enter a stage. Spot on, and smile!
02. DRESS FOR THE JOB YOU WANT
People tend to believe what you think about yourself. You think you should have more customer contact? Then dress like you already have that. That's how you tend to trust it.
03. THE INVISIBLE FACES KNOW THE WAY
Imagine that there are two small threads on your crown and on your chest that are constantly taut. And zack, already you take in the perfect posture.
04. MAKE THEM JUST
Nothing is worse for your standing than a crouched offering. Shoulder to the back, head up, use the airspace. He is yours.
05. BLO? DO NOT PROTECT. YOU DO NOT NEED THIS.
Crossed arms, crossed hands, knotted legs ... when you go into protective posture, you express fear. Much better: Show open your vulnerable body parts, so throat and chest. A silly remnant of times when the stronger has simply laced the weaker one. Anyone who showed open chest and throat probably feared no club. But even if it is silly. It works.
06. STAY FOCUSED
Sovereignty begins with focus. Do not just go away and prepare the next sentence. If you do not stay mentally in conversation, you lose your sovereignty.
07. PAY OUT CONTACT
Also a thing from the animal kingdom, to which we belong in the end yes. Who keeps the eye contact, wins. If both win in the end, so much the better.
08. AVOID PRIVATISM
We all have privateisms. What is that? Just any funny habits. For example, stroking hair out of the face permanently. Or crack with your fingers. All this has no business at work because it? As the name indicates ? is private and that is the opposite of professional in many professions.
09. Vote for yourself
Deep, firm voices are automatically attributed to particularly confident and successful people. Use this and humming as deep as possible through the world. You can always control your voice a bit. And that's worth it, because squeaky voices are always a bit incompetent.
10. DO NOT THINK FIRST BEFORE NEGOTIATING OVER YOUR STANDING
To observe all these rules only on the day of the salary negotiation brings little. Even if the job environment feels cuddly and warm, you may be willing to put a bit of effort into presenting the deep-rooted and invulnerable queen instead of leaving the scepter to the mouse. If all goes well, the ruble rolls soon.
