Effective communication is very important in personal as well as professional life. Success in corporate life also depends on building a rapport with colleagues and being a team player. Words are important in communication but more important than words is the body language as bodies generally do not lie. Hence, to ascertain credibility of an individual, businessmen are on the lookout for the signals the bodies silently give. Shaking hands and trembling legs denote nervousness and lack of confidence, avoiding eye contact can mean guilt, nearness denotes affinity, time spent on a person or an activity denotes its importance. Animated movements, frowning face, furrowed brows, a happy smile, a vibrant voice and a firm handshake communicate a lot to the listeners than words. In this paper an attempt has been made to bring out the importance of non verbal communication by discussing Kinesics, Oculesics, Haptics, Proxemics, Object Language, Vocalics and Chronemics.
