Nonverbal Communication An Influential Tool for Effective Management (original) (raw)

While one can choose to shut off all the linguistic outlets of communication, it is impossible to circumvent the non-verbal communication as the body keeps sending signals intentionally or subconsciously. It is, therefore, that the non-verbal cues become a powerful tool for controlling, organizing, directing and coordinating in any field which significantly involves interpersonal relationship and group dynamics. To be able to produce powerful messages through one's non-verbal signals and to be able to interpret non-verbal communication correctly are important skills one must master for effective management and workplace relationship. The present paper attempts to establish the role of non-verbal communication in effective management. It examines the case specifically by keeping under review the four areas of nonverbal communication: kinesics, proxemics, vocalics, and chronemics.
