[@Pikopati]

This is a good talk. He talked 0% about himself and 100% about the subject.

[@harisbug]

Pikopati covert dominance is much more powerful than overt

[@taylorrandolph9996]

I think that it is situational there are instances where being covert has the upper hand; however there is often a need to be obvious or to show the intention of being dominant.

I actually tried this today with my difficult supervisor. I am a letter carrier and she NEVER wants to give me overtime, even though my route earns it. Tuesdays are ad days... I dread them because I know she will deny the overtime help. So today, when she came around to my case, I put my palms up and said in a question tone, "an hour?" she said OKAY!!!!!!! wth? I can't believe it worked!

[@angelalopez7704]

I'm a real estate agent. Today I was showing a property and I noticed I even walk around with my hands in my pockets. Every time I noticed it I took them out but had no idea what to do with them. Now I know. I practiced some of these hand gestures and even with the palms up I felt confident, friendly, likeable and my adrenaline level is out of the roof now. I want to go tomorrow and sell a house and close that deal!

Hey guys, the biggest key to improve body language - if you ask me - is to actually start and focus in on one thing at the time, play around with it and take notice of the reactions you get! I put up weekly challenges every week, and then do some vlogs about it during the weekdays when implement it. So this week i focused in on five of the most basic body language techniques, check it out and do the challenge as well! If you want to improve your body language that is:). Have a great day!

[@laviniagiovagnoni984]

Always remember " A great communicator is a person who can hear and see whether a person is listening or not- body language reinforces it - Thanks for sharing Alan and TEDX

[@itsnotthesamething]

I am extremely shy, so, after watching a video last night, about facing the person you are talking to head on, and looking them in the eye, I did so this evening, with a girl who would hardly talk to me before. I think it went well. I'm going to keep watching these kinds of videos, and I am going to put into practice, the things I learn. I am tired of feeling like the outsider, but I see that I was sending all the wrong messages, with my body language.

[@laila.h.90]

If you are interested in understanding the body language I recommend reading his book "the definitive book of body language" I've read it and it is definitely one of my favorite books. Before reading his book I used to entirely rely on what the person in front of me is saying verbally now that I'm aware of the non verbal messages I have a better understanding of what really goes on the mind and shows as body signals, postures and gestures. Allen Pease is a real expert in this field.

[@CosmopolitanFools]

Allan Pease is a master of inter-personal communication. He provides examples, gesturing & body language, facial expression, & ALSO scientific demographics & percentages, comparative studies & results - all supporting everything he is relating to the public. He uses the verbal dynamics of volume, pausing, emphasis of single words - modulating . . . he adhered to everything theme to theme.

[@Sinan97082]

Hm ... after reading some Books about body language, I recognized this: In Turkey our elders always say "Watch your hands and arms" (Eline koluna sahip cik) or "Watch how you sit and stand up" (oturmana kalkmana dikkat et) ... In our region Bodylanguage is hard to fake, the people grow up with this they live it, their enviroment lives this. So all the sayings of my parents and other elders makes now sense to me, and it is interesting, that we in the western society need scientific explanation and have to learn these stuff again. Also interesting is, this thing calles P.U.A ... all this PUA stuff, if you read about and compare how people from southern countries behave, you recognize that they do it naturally... -.- So many things, that we have to learn by this way, instead of living it naturally... that shows how far we have gotten from our natural being. We should rethink how we live ...

[@erko78]

Same in Bosnia. My mother always tells me to sit up straight or stand up straight.

[@gphilipc2031]

In the US it's "Duck and Cover", "Stop, Drop, and Roll" or "Just Say No" and sometimes we say "Stick Around" or "I'll be Back". Other then that we have pretty much pitched decent manners, respect for elders and gestures of good will.

[@stillyourlilgirl]

In japan too and japan is a very polite country... From the language itself to the behavior to the point of being totally what we call 'fake' but to them it is still called being polite... It is considered very rude to point to a person... And i think gestures aren't merely just for the politeness too.

[@Sinan97082]

***** Eating, sleeping, building social circles are most natural things that we inherit. Everything else is like you said... until, and thats what really matters you start to rethink your behaviour and begin to reflect. But of course no one is free of the influence that our enviroment brings with itself.

[@viamargarita]

I’m honoured to shake Allan Pease hands in this video and he exactly described my personality 🙌

[@jimreily7538]

What this comes down to is, "If I contort my body in a certain way, I'll be able to change how other people feel and think about me". Which itself more succinctly put, is: I can influence how other people feel about me. So most people then, are intensely concerned with how other people feel about them, and don't realise a simple truth. What other people think about you, is not in your hands. Literally or figuratively. It is in theirs. And while body language, a smile, a positive tone of voice and so on conveys a certain impression, the reality is this. What you think about yourself is beyond everything else. If you don't like yourself, then you'll be forcing yourself to learn body language methods to get other people to like you, and if other people like you, then (so folks think) you will like yourself more. Why not just skip the entire "other people" step, and focus on learning to like yourself ? This whole body language thing is about reflecting to others, how you feel. If you feel good, comfortable, happy, unconcerned, confident, isn't that a better goal to try to achieve than, "if only I keep my palms facing upwards, more people will like me" ? Like yourself. Learn that skill. Or even better: accept that any emotional state is fleeting, and that nobody else can make you happy. DOING WHAT YOU WANT TO DO is way more important. Whatever barriers are in the way of you, right now, doing what you want to be doing, right now. Those are what you should focus on.

[@kylemiller2414]

This is why I watch TED talks. Allan Pease is an excellent presenter whose body language is as engaging as his content. With just the right amount of humor (Now you can go into politics!) he presents information that everyone can understand, he teaches the audience how to implement his teaching, and he gives us motivation to follow his teaching by providing benefits personally, socially and even politically. The art of persuasion is just that, an art, so what this TED talk provides is thought provoking insights as to how we can be more likable, more confident and even more charismatic. This is an outstanding presentation.

[@jamie4390]

It's not about intimidated people, its about giving across the appropriate message at the appropriate time. What I do find funny however, is that both you and dmoney have very dominate and 'aggressive' profile pictures, completely makes me think otherwise. Also read the 48 laws of power, you saying that others are alpha males, is in itself a power move to make you seem better than them. ;)

[@leerivera80]

F a speech. Actions speak louder.

[@blackcitadel37]

+Moh Murad well, if not, they should. most of the communication is not what you say, but how you say and what is your body language when you say.

[@rammstein413567]

+Moh Murad The thing is that the body language affects the content. If you have a speech and it makes a lot of sense, aka great content, but you seem unconfident or unsure about it then it makes it a lot less appealing. If someone gives a speech with mediocre content but a lot of confidence then you feel like maybe they could be onto something even if you don't quite see it. Of course humans should try ti willingly differentiate between the two to make the best decision but we first have to know how and what our subconscious decides things.

[@jointhelodge7582]

[@girlbehindthereddoor]

This really is true. You can see so much in someone's palm and it indicates openness & honesty when you display your palms to others. The back of the hand indicates shyness, anxiousness or intimidation (especially when used with a finger point). It's crazy really that it has so much of an effect on the way you come across to others.

[@davidparamel8421]

Now that's a great example of how hand expressions are to be used while communicating in our day to day life. Allan rocks. I am going to start practising those from today onwards.

[@Astaraa]

In Baguazhang (zhang=palm) kung fu, palm down is yang/masculine/projecting and palm up is yin/feminine/receptive... Palm up feels. Palm down expresses its will. We alter the world with our palm-side. Similarly we Receive a gift with our palm up, and Give a gift with palm down. And when we receive, we do so with our vulnerable side. Our palm is also the delicate side of our arm, receptive to whatever is offered. So the speaker is also opening up to receive. :)

[@walterblack8127]

One thing I appreciated about Allan is that he didn't stand around at the end an expect applause. That's one thing I've noticed about the best TED speakers, they don't linger on stage expecting praise and glory, they present their message and exit as soon as they finish speaking.

[@adielwilson8749]

This was one of the best and most straightforward TED Talks I've watched in a while. Amazing just amazing

[@Musician-Lee]

Allan Pease nails it, because he understands and can explain the body language we use unconsciously. People confuse this with political correctness. Even though people try to speak in a non-discriminatory way we still communicate unconsciously through body language. Allan is simply brilliant at explaining how we do this without meaning to and how we can avoid communicating the wrong message, or conflicting messages. He’s the best in the world at this, without a shadow of a doubt.

[@sewongaton]

This guy is awesome. I used these techniques already but now i am conscious about it. Way to Go

ZosiaSamosiaOo so clearly you didnt just listen to much

[@aweb5530]

AJAnewage To clarify, this speaker implies that finger pointing is talking at you, not to you. As if you are an idiot. However, he also mentions that there is a time and place for that gesture, such as an emergency. Uncle Sam is recruiting for a war, suggesting an emergency situation. I hope you read better than you listen ZosiaSamosiaOo.

[@ZosiaSamosiaOo]

AJAnewage Hunter Coleman My comment was based on a documentary called "The Secrets of Body Language" where they examined the other side of the finger pointing agenda. If the result presented in this video was the only one possible, no public persona would ever use it as they're getting trained to manipulate people. Yet the do, cause they know where it can get them in specific situations.

[@vasilzhiliev6057]

That smile at 6:27 was so pure I love this guy for some damn reason, enough to comment which is super rare for me

[@walterblack8127]

I was wondering if I was reading too much into that, but apparently not

[@werewolf74]

Not just a 'point' but the palm is hidden.... I am very good at READING body language and not a single day passes that I dont think about this stuff. Like when you walk by someone on the street, do they nod up? or down? both up? both down? But I like the idea of using that knowledge to modify my own mood and physiology. I like that a lot. I am currently working on making 'tools' for myself to deal with some of my age old psychological issues and this may be a key. Awesome input.

[@johnaccolade5732]

Yeah, when you pass people in the street, you can consciously decide what body language to use. If you nod up and smile it usually shows friendliness and high status. If you nod down and smile it is still friendly but it is also deferential and tends to be lower status. High / low status aren't good / bad, it just depends on who you're talking to and what you want to send out. If you want to send out power, dominance, importance and security in yourself, then the head nod up and smile is useful, whilst holding eye contact. If when you pass each other, you move out the way for them, it is polite but you are acknowledging that you're not dominant. If instead you keep going and they move out the way for you, it puts you in a dominant position. The person who hugs the wall also tends to be the person with the power, as opposed to the person near the curb or who walks into the street out the way for you. These are just basic generalisations. If these distinctions aren't useful then don't pick them up, but if they are useful then by all means use them to influence the way you feel about yourself and the kind of signals you are sending out into the world. A tip - DON'T think about how you're received if at all possible, think about what you want to send out. Yesterday I was thinking about my body language all day, but I was doing it from a frame of 'how are people seeing me', and I felt nervous and bad. All I needed to do was switch to a frame of 'how do I want to come across' (these really are two completely different things - one focuses on you and creating what you want, the other on others and what they want to see (you want to avoid this latter approach unless you want neurotic thoughts about how you're being perceived!!)) and I felt much better, whilst still changing my body language for the better. So think about how you want to feel and what you want to broadcast rather than what other people might be picking up. You'll feel more secure that way. By the way, it will feel a bit 'wrong' to change your physiology into postures you aren't usually in, because it's unusual for your body. It ONLY feels wrong because you have practised being in a less helpful physiology. Ignore this slight feeling of "this isn't quite right" and stick with it. Over time, you will change your physiology permanently or a lot more of the time than before, and the new physiology will feel right and the old one 'wrong'! As you are very good at READING body language, you have a very, very strong upper hand here. I tend not to be very visually observant so I think you are lucky to have that skill. That unconscious knowledge you have of body language (or maybe conscious too) is very useful in formatting your own physiology. You can definitely utilize this knowledge practically.

Yes you can easily tell what kind of person is by handshaking.

[@jothain]

Rohit Eligeti So you think you're above the person you're shaking hand. Ever considered that what if counterpart wants to give specific impression to you, relying you judging him that way?

[@holly_hacker]

Really interesting talk! I'm sure this will come in handy!

[@remingtonlamey3464]

Muito legal! Adorei o palestrante! Obrigada pela tradução!

[@aprilrochellebryant8451]

This right here is a true 💎 of knowledge that is hardly taught. A lil' bit of human psychology thrown in the mix of how you communicate with others. Pure awesomeness

[@kathleenloucks9012]

I LOVE this guy! Amazing isn't it...how a seemingly insignificant thing can make such a difference?! I super enjoyed learning this powerful tidbit of information about human nature.

[@dandonovan5345]

Thank you, I now know and understand this more fully, and yes it makes so much sense..... Met many professionals in my career, and remembering our first meeting and my feelings. The scene was often set within the first few minutes, the handshake was fundamental to my initial perceptions of a person.

After watching this video for a few minutes I realized that He is Allan PEASE the writer of The defenitive book of body language in collaboration with his wife ! Such a great book which walk trought all kinf of body signals !

Wow, isn't that fascinating how subconscious so much of the human brain is still? So amazing.

[@Kiwinnit]

and a lot of fun to learn about!

[@MmeHyraelle]

Hm, yea, 90% of what you do is on auto-pilot. We're NPC's most of the time.

[@MmeHyraelle]

@timwins31 Then i'll have fun mindfucking you because neurology > you.

[@fadachipauline973]

I love his confidence.

[@vkeighmanabe2952]

This was an awesome talk. I love this man, he has such good energy attached to his talk, it was so nice to listen to. It just felt so nice

[@AbdulBasitkhawaja]

Great ... Highly motivated

[@drjethrowski1225]

What is to stop the sociopath from exploiting people who adopt beliefs in such indicators, thus rendering all observations suspect, and thus detracting from real interactions where a genuine sharing is the goal... This reminds me, with a gut wrenching remembrance of exactly when I lost faith in the goodness of Humankind ,of when my older brother discovered, then read and read and read Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People (when we were teenagers); thereafter, proceeding to turn friends into prey, family into experiments, and life into a game where the winner was the loser: the perfection of superficiality. One can find everything on TED these days.

[@biggusdikkus6985]

Great talk! He actually didn't talk about himself but about the subject! Very rare!

[@khaibarkhanalmas]

I freakin loved how he explained it, I could listen to him for hours and learn better then college lectures

[@dennis.zinner]

In my opinion one of the most capturing tedtalks so far!

[@crouchingspinach]

One of the best presenters I've seen on TED.

[@Ana36287]

Brilliant.!!.He is clever and very smart

[@irametal4901]

So excited to watch this!! I started reading his book a few days ago and while watching other TED talks this one was suggested! It was wonderful! he is to the point!

[@mikehoward5004]

Very charismatic speaker.

[@frankie555]

Also notice what he does between 2.30 and 4.35. He pulls the guy's hand towards him into his own energy. This allows him to control the other guy continuously while he's holding his hand, until he guides the other guy off the stage by moving his hand that way. With subtle hand movements he's constantly leading the other guy. People who have ever practiced Aikido, will recognise this.

[@dcschool834]

this TED talk is absolute class

[@laariestilliman7203]

So awesome. Who knew something so simple could be so effective? He explained it in such a commonsense manner.Thank you Mr. Allan Pease/TedxTalks!

[@3DHistoryAdventures]

That was FANTASTIC. So insightful, and he was funny as hell too

[@agustinruiz8323]

Estas si son ideas que valen la pena compartir. Gracias TEDex

[@ravikumargovindaraj7426]

Indians are taught with Namaste, neither dominant nor supressive. We are taught to deal with situations with the capacity we have as it arises. No prejudice - No Unprejudice. Namaste

[@sogal4christ]

Best ted talk I’ve seen in a while. I will use and share this

[@BYGODYOUARESPECIAL1]

What a great presentation, a master of communication.

[@hillaryyasmin359]

Amei as "dicas" da linguagem do corpo humano!

[@darksidessj25]

For those who do not know, this is charisma. If you want to be a leader learn how to speak like this. I did and it's changing my life. People will open up to you and perceive you as a leader. I use to the most unconfident person. It was so bad I couldn't even lift up a phone to talk to someone who was calling me for IT support. I eventually got terminated due to a lack of confidence. I had the necessary skills but when you lack social skills you will fail. I took this to the next level and learned other things like flow for example and started to influence others. I don't make KZbin videos but maybe I should. I use this to make others feel good and to have a good time at work cause my job is depressing.
