Zu den Themen Körpersprache und nonverbale Kommunikation gibt es hunderte von Büchern. Kevin Hogan überschreitet dabei die Idee der Körpersprache als reines Referenzmaterial und bringt sie durch The Secret Language of Business mit der Geschäftswelt in Einklang. Diese Buch ist auf das Lehren des A und O der Körpersprache ausgerichtet und wie diese nicht nur das private und geschäftliche Leben berührt, sondern letztendlich auch verändert. Die Einführungskapitel klärt über die Grundlagen von Körpersprache auf und die Kraft, die sie besitzt, Einstellungen, Aktionen und Ergebnisse zu beeinflussen. Nachdem Sie diese technische Aspekte bewältigt haben, wird Hogan Ihnen beibringen, Ihre Körpersprache zu Ihrem Vorteil in allen Aspekten des Berufslebens (Meetings, Verkaufstagungen, Bewerbungsgespräche, Management, etc.) zu nutzen.
