Non-Verbal Communication Amy Cuddy TED Talk Discussion

I’m stuck on a Communications question and need an explanation.

Watch this video: Amy Cuddy TED Talk – Fake it Till You Make it (Links to an external site.)

Answer the following questions:

What are some examples of nonverbal expressions of power and dominance, according to Dr. Cuddy? Provide an interpersonal example of when you expressed power/dominance non-verbally.

How do our nonverbal behaviors govern how we think and feel about ourselves?

What is “power posing”? Provide examples of powerful and powerless poses from the video. Also, give an example when “power-posing” might help you in your everyday interactions.

“Tiny Tweaks can lead to big changes”—what is the speaker referring to here? What “tweaks” will you make to improve communication?

 

 

1. According to Dr. Cuddy, some examples of nonverbal expression of power and dominance include making your body big and opening up like extending out your arms. I think every timeI walk somewhere in public by myself, I try to present myself as “powerful” or tough. I actually feel scared walking by myself most of the timebut like Dr. Cuddy said, you have to fake it till you make it. I walk with my back straight and my arms next to me instead of in my pockets or crossed together so people do not bother me. I am not even sure it works but it is worth a try.

Our nonverbal behaviour can actually trick our minds into thinking we actually feel certain ways. Like if we smile for a picture, it will actually make us feel happy or when people pretend to be powerful they tend to actually feel more powerful. Our bodies can change our minds and vice versa.

Power posing is when you fix your posture in a way that will make you feel more empowered. Powerful poses include making yourself bigger or putting your hands on your hips or in the air. According to the authors of Interplay, your nonverbal behavior can affect your feelings and emotions (chapter 6, page 175.) Rosenfeld, Proctor II and Adler state, “Adopting expansive poses such as hands on hips or spreading out your arms can increase your sense of power (Carney et a., 2010)… Holding these postures for just two minutes creates chemical changes in the body- higher testosterone and lower cortisol” (chapter 6, page 175.) Power posing can help you in any situation where you need confidence like a job interview, a presentation or even when meeting new people.

Tiny tweaks can make big changes means that you can make small changes in your life that will later better help you. Some tweaks you can make to improve communication is to be more empathetic towards others. Be aware of their lives, beliefs and just know that they may have different ways of communicating than you. Also, being more confident in yourself and using these power poses to help benefit your interaction with others, especially if you are a shy person like me.

The concept of “two minutes” is that you take two minutes out of your day to practice power poses so you can feel more empowered. I think the “two minutes” can be used with any positive action you use to empower yourself like a daily affirmation or breathing exercises. I have done these power poses or as I like to call it, the “wonder woman pose”, for just 2 days and I had so much improvement in my day. The pose paired up with a positive message to myself started my day on a positive note and set the tone for the rest of my day.

 

2. In the Ted Talk video called Your Body Language May Shape What You Are, according to Dr. Cuddy, some nonverbal expressions of power and dominance are body language, such as sitting with your body spread out and relax. Another position is standing with your shoulders straight and hands on your hips, otherwise known as the wonder women pose. I have done this pose any times when talking to my brothers. For the main reason to show them that I do not submitto them just because they are older and bigger than I am. How we feel inside governs the way we express ourselves in a nonverbal way. In the textbook in chapter six, page 175 it talks about holding certain postures for just two minuteswill affect the body chemically as a result of higher testosterone and lower cortisol. These kinds of poses are what are referred to as power posing. Some of the power poses that were presented in the video was such as sitting laid back and your body spread out, or standing with your arms in the air, feet shoulder length apart and back straight. In the video, there are photos of people hugging themselves and curled into themselves. These are examples of powerless poses. There are many times I could do a power-posing might help me but one good time to do a few is when I am leaving the house for the store and my anxiety keeps me from walking through the front door. In the video, Dr. Cuddy talks about tiny tweaks that lead to big changes, the speaker is referring to that if you make some tiny change in your posture, such as relaxing your shoulders or straightening the back, can make big changes in how others perceive you and how you perceive yourself. When I am communicating with someone, some of the tweaks that I could do to improve myself would be number one not hide within myself, as in close my body off from the other by crossing my arms and hunching over into myself. Another thing that I could do is try and keep eye contact as long as possible. The concept of “two minutes” is to take two minutes for yourself. In this time of two minutes, you would do anything to improve yourself in ways that need to be improved, such as a small pep-talk or deep breathing exercises. I know these kinds of things would help me interact with others by helping with my anxiety.
