Nonverbal Communication: How do men and women communicate differently using Non- Verbal Cues and behavior and how it matters in the workplace.
Purpose
The key objective of undertaking research on nonverbal communication between women and men in the workplace is to provide precise information on the people’s skills in interpreting meanings of information. It is because of the fact that men and women have different propensities on the use of nonverbal communication. Understanding gender differences is a greater milestone in improving the relationships in the organization (Knapp et.al 77). The research is therefore aimed at signaling varied meanings of nonverbal cues in the workplace.
Procedures (Research Methods & References to Secondary Sources)
The study on the nonverbal communication is undertaken by carrying out numerous data collection. The data are collected randomly from the population in the workplaces. The primary sources include using information from the records, documents and the oral testimonies of key individuals (Leathers et.al 78). The witnesses thereby have provided accounts of the reports and use of nonverbal cues. The accounts by key witnesses give a comprehensive understanding of the situation in society (Knapp et.al 58). The experimental procedure entails the use of a group of undergraduate students of different genders. They assume different tasks in the organization in which they employ various nonverbal cues (Burgoon et.al 117).
Background
Communication is the process in which two or more individuals share information either non- verbally or verbally.

Nonverbal communication refers to the sharing of information with the other without using any form of speech words to pass the message to the individuals. The different types of this form of communication are; facial expressions, paralanguage, eye messages, clothing, attractiveness, distance, space, time, manner, smell and body adornment. This form of communication is recognized by several scholars to entail significant influence in the society and general communication process (Leathers et.al 78). Nonverbal communication matters a lot in society since the way individual moves, looks, listens, and reacts to other people in the surrounding much about the individual (Knapp et.al 112). It can provide knowledge concerning whether a person is keenly listening to talk, truthful or cares. It is very significant since it can increase trust, rapport, and clarity. In the case in which nonverbal cues does not appear good, it creates confusion, tension, and mistrust (Merriam et.al 16).
Findings
Research has significantly suggested that women have significant influence in receiving and sending nonverbal cues, even though both parties are receptors and senders. Women are actively alert in sending nonverbal cues in the society; they are also proficient with their capability of understanding physical cues (Bandhiya et.al 49). The research indicates that majority of women are efficient in their use of paralanguage. For instance, they tend to say “fine” when they are severely angered or are unmoved by disturbing activities. Men on the other hand typically understand the attitudes of women by simple of their eyes. Men in society subtle the key nonverbal cues by their eyes.
In a study it is revealed men are very efficient nonverbal communicators, they taste the key dominance in the practice subconsciously (Leathers et.al 78). It is further revealed that men have significant dominance than women in the influence over intersex nonverbal habits. They use their high proximity and high-status cues to women. People often misunderstand the nonverbal cues in the case whereby they are not interested in the conversation. They misread the cues and thus may seem offended in some instances (Knapp et.al 93). They also tend to mimic the nonverbal cues practiced by their fellow men. The behavior of sprawling legs while relaxing and the habit of casually putting their arms behind the heads is important behaviors that they exhibit (Bandhiya et.al 99). Women rarely use these gestures often, but they also mimic their fellow women in some instances.
In understanding the gender bias and gender role amongst these groups, it is very simple to comprehend the source of these differences. It is provided that women are weaker and emotional sex. They tend to be more instinctual and enhance connections by directly checking on one another. Women greatly exhibit the behavior of touching whenever an individual is talking. The touch often excites their emotions and help develop a bond between them and their counterparts (Knapp et.al 23).
Traditionally, men and women communication have for the long period been halted at due to gender communication barrier. The conversation is terminated at impasses often. Both genders assume a lot of communication styles in society. However, women entail more efficient natural communication methods (Burgoon et.al 117). Women have always been argued to communicate on multiple levels.
Recommendations
In conclusion, I strongly recommend that individuals should actively understand that communication is multifaceted and complex. Nonverbal communication is a very significant factor that has always been in use in diverse cultures and among groups. Efficiency in the workplace is significantly achieved by understanding and interpreting the nonverbal cues well. Effectiveness in the nonverbal communication enhances good interpersonal relationships in the workplace, cultures and develops careers in the society (Knapp et.al 95). It is everybody’s sole responsibility to understand dynamics of communication and thus reduce the likelihood of misunderstanding in society. In the workplace, productivity and performance improvement is realized by effective communication (Merriam et.al 156).
