A good speaker is someone who has equal impact from what he speaks an from the body gestures. Research proves that in fact more than half of the impression is because of what you don’t speak and depends on your body language. A person has a control over his words but body cannot be instantaneously controlled if you don’t have the proper etiquette’s of reacting while giving the public speech. Body language comprises of gestures that occur while speaking on face, hand etc. Also the facial expressions add to the beauty of representing things.
- Whenever you tend to stand, make sure your hands are at the side and not tied behind. This helps in adding hand gestures at some places that has their own importance.
- While speaking try not to se the assessor and only look the other friends sitting in the semi-circle.
- Some people have a bad habit of shaking the legs while speaking, but remember this gesture is sufficient to distract the audience and whatever you speak goes in vain. Try to keep the legs constant so that they don’t shake. This move also represents that there is a lack of confidence and ads negative value to the speaker.
- The movement of eye, moth and facial muscle should be well coordinated. I make sure in my mentorship program that I provide that the aspirant learns all those things and try to implement. SSB is not just about bringing instantaneous improvement but its preparing for the best and living the best life.
- Try to improve your personality permanently which indirectly tens to prepare you automatically for SSB.
Body language in such an exercise is very important and can add value to whatever you speak and can get you more marks altogether.
