They say that most communication is nonverbal and that one can gauge someone’s else true intentions with the use of good demonstrative communication skills. Demonstrative communication encompasses the system of unwritten and nonverbal cues that are involved in body language. They offer the basis for understanding the world around us and define the quality of our relationships with others. Miscommunication does occur, however, because while many cues are universal, others vary from culture to culture. These, along with other subtle nuances, may corrupt the intended meaning of what was said. For example, another way that demonstrative communication may be inaccurate is when someone says something but their body language doesn’t coincide with what they are saying. In cases like this, “People react to the unspoken and your communication success will improve as you become more aware of types of nonverbal communication.” (http://www.livestrong.com/article/130467-non-verbal-communication-types/)
Poor demonstrative communication skills can make the recipient feel rejected even though that may not be the intention of the person that was originally communicating. Mixups occurs because our body language skills may be lacking or because of many other factors. Many people fail to realize that body language is a learned behavior and can be influenced by many things. These include, but are not limited to, cultural background, gender, financial wealth, the country of your birth, relational distance, and your personality. If most of your communication is done through body language, then logically the best way to improve your communication skills is not to work on improving your vocabulary but instead on how they are expressed. Fortunately, these skills can be improved upon once
