The Effect of Powerful Body Language in Interviews and Presentations

This 20 minute video provides a great insight into body language and how it can shape who you are and the success you can achieve.

​Body Language can be particularly effective during interviews, so it's worth practising confident posture.  Do it enough and you WILL feel confident.

Your body language shapes who you are...

Amy Cuddy, Social Psychologist, illustrates in this 6 minute TED talk how you can empower yourself through this simple two-minute exercise.  It will raise your testosterone (females too) and lower cortisone levels.

Practise this technique often - "fake it until you BECOME it". 

Browse the rest of our website for other talks by Amy.  She really does offer powerful advice.

I frequently encounter this body language problem in my interview skills coaching clients who are getting interviews but not getting the job. So I was really pleased to come across this talk which sums up the psychology perfectly.
