TALKINC TALKING ABOUT BRAND IMAGE

Kehebatan seorang pembicara tidak hanya terletak pada kekuatan kata-katanya, namun juga pada sikap tubuhnya ketika sedang berbicara.  Kata-kata yang powerfuldan suara yang hebat dapat membuat hadirin memperhatikan apa yang sedang Anda ucapkan, akan tetapi bahasa tubuh mempengaruhi presentasi Anda sejak Anda mulai naik ke atas panggung sampai menutup pembicaraan. Ketika Anda memasuki ruangan, menunggu untuk diperkenalkan, dan berjalan ke atas podium untuk memulai presentasi, saat itulah hadirin membuat kesan pertama tentang diri Anda.Gerak-gerik, ekspresi wajah, dan kontak mata Anda seringkali lebih mampu menciptakan kesan bagi hadirin daripada kata-kata yang Anda ucapkan.

In fact, everyone can convey a series of sentences or words to convey a message clearly.However, a speaker who really cares about his material tries to use his whole body to support the message he is conveying.

His hand movements were strong enough to reach the audience and emphasize the meaning. His stance was precise enough to shorten the distance between the message he was conveying and the audience's ears. His face expressed passion when his eyes connected with the audience. And did you know?Audiences will respond best to a speaker whose body is lively and energetic.The audience will better understand a speaker whose every movement is meaningful and supports the messages he conveys.On the other hand, the audience will not be impressed or connected with a speaker whose body language is different from his words, for example shaking his head “no” when he says “yes”, making an irritated facial expression when he says “I'm happy”.A speaker who cannot synchronize his body language with his words will make the audience confused and find it difficult to understand the message or meaning of the conversation.

Compared to materialpower pointor any props, body posture is a speaker's best visual aid.Whether you are a confident or less confident speaker cannot be judged by words, but by your body language. When you are presenting, strong and positive body language becomes an important tool in helping you build credibility, express emotions, and connect with the audience.Body language also helps your audience focus more intensely on what you are saying. Effective body language, apart from supporting the message conveyed, also projects a positive self-image of the speaker.

Therefore, a speaker must realize that when delivering a speech or presentation, he must not only be able to control his words, but also must be able to control his body language.
