Equality Body Language

Equality Body Language is also known as Nonverbal Communication, even though that's technically not correct, it gives you a lot of extra information beyond the spoken words that you can use to recognise people's emotions, and discover their real intentions.

Have you ever been speaking with someone and had a gut feeling or hunch, that they are not telling the truth?


What you are actually taking notice of in both situations is the body language, assuming they’ve not actually expressed it.

Is what people are saying (i.e. the words they speak) and what they are really saying, their intentions, emotions and hidden agendas, very different?


• Some people lie.
• Some people unconsciously oppose what they say
• Some people pretend to be what they're not
• Some people don't talk at all but their body speaks volumes!

What hidden body language have we got around equality and diversity? What are the unconscious gestures that we don’t want to show, and how can we get it to work for you rather than against you?

When we’re children we’re taught to be Polite! Decoded in everyday speak means tell a nice sounding lie.


Equality body language is so obvious most people just don’t see it, especially around Equality and Diversity.

What do you think?

Does it matter?
