Gesticulation--the practice of using your hands and arms to
punctuate or enhance your verbal statements--is another valuable body language
strategy.
Speakers who use body language actively in their presentation tend
to be viewed as more confident and more authoritative than those who do not.
Obviously, different hand gestures can signal different things, and
if you simply wave your hands wildly in front of your audience, it may make you
come across as out of control.
Instead, focus on reserving your hand gestures for your most
impactful words, and try to keep your movements reserved and under strict
control.
