1PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATIONAns 1: Some examples of non-verbal communication include body language. Body languageincludes various gestures such as shaking hands, patting the back, different types of touch,hugging, pushing, along with facial expression, eye contact, and gestures. Additionally, otherkinds of non-verbal communications include haptics, appearance, paralinguistics, andproxemics. Around 7% non-verbal communication is used daily while establishing effectivecommunication. Effective use of non-verbal communication ensures communicating positivelanguage to the other party (Knapp, Hall & Horgan, 2013).Ans 2: Non-verbal messages are stronger compared to verbal communication because thebody language tends to reflect individual actions that are not actually expressed verbally.Verbal communication might make the individual calm and positive towards the otherindividual but the body language used towards the other individual might demonstrate a senseof dominance, power, fear or being bossy (Burgoon, Guerrero & Floyd, 2016).Ans 3: Yes, trusting non-verbal messages is essential than verbal messages. This is becausenon-verbal messages help in understanding the actual motive, opinion, and mindset of oneindividual for the other. For example, being a host, the host needs to put the hand on theshoulder of the guest and take him inside the house. However, if the opposite happens and theguest puts the hand on the shoulder of the host and takes him inside, the non-verbal actionsends the message of being dominant (Lemonnier, 2012). Ans 4: In the video, the concept of body language in terms of non-verbal communication isextremely intriguing. This is because, the video analyses the body language, facialexpressions, and gestures of various world leaders and celebrities. What otherwise would justlook like shaking a hand or putting a hand around the shoulder or holding own fingers likekids, the video helps in analysing the inner meaning of the body gestures for the worldleaders and the celebrities ("Secrets of body language HD", 2017).
