Leadercamp on-demand: The Power of Nonverbal Communication
Savvy business professionals know that communicating effectively is a powerful way to create connection, build trust, and deliver results.

We communicate through words, tones, gestures, movement, and expressions. However, research suggests that a significant percentage of communication occurs nonverbally. Therefore, strengthening non-verbal communication capabilities may have a positive impact on your life, leadership, and career. Join Jennifer Nash-executive advisor, leadership expert, and Fortune 50 consultant-to learn the secret to decoding nonverbal facial expressions.
