FOMO Sapiens with Patrick J. McGinnis

S12 E10 Reading Between the Lines: Nonverbal Cues in Business with Blake Eastman

Are you really saying what you think you are without even speaking? In this episode of FOMO Sapiens, host Patrick J. McGinnis chats with Blake Eastman, founder of The Nonverbal Group, to explore how nonverbal communication shapes our interactions in business and beyond. Blake explains why common advice like, “always smile”, can be misleading and how understanding the context and perception of nonverbal cues is key to making meaningful connections. But it’s not just about the signals you send; it’s about how they’re perceived. Blake offers insights into how business leaders and entrepreneurs can improve their communication by being more aware of the hidden messages they send and understanding the impact of perception. Whether you're pitching to investors or leading a team, learn how to master the unspoken side of communication and avoid sending the wrong signals.
