Option #1: Nonverbal Communication Observation 

In this critical thinking assignment, you are asked to observe the nonverbal communication in a business setting. You could choose a Zoom session, Microsoft Teams session or another location where business is being conducted. While observing, pay close attention to the nonverbal communication messages being sent. Please reflect on the following:

  • What nonverbal behavior did you observe and what information did you glean from these messages?
  • Are the verbal and nonverbal messages congruent?
  • How is the leader demonstrating nonverbal communication and is it helpful or not in facilitating communication?
  • Talk with at least one other person from the meeting to gather his/her feedback regarding the nonverbal messages being sent in the meeting.

Keep in mind this is academic writing. It should be written in third person and should not include unsubstantiated opinions, but rather facts and theories. Your well-written paper must adhere to the following parameters:

  • 4-5 pages in length, not including the title and reference pages.
  • 3 scholarly references cited in the assignment. Remember, you must support your thinking/opinions and prior knowledge with in-text citations and references; all facts must be supported; in-text citations used throughout the assignment must be included in an APA-formatted reference list

Option #2: Analyzing Nonverbal Communication 

In this critical thinking activity, analyze the nonverbal communication observed within any television show, speech or other visual broadcast you can find. You can choose any speech that you find on the Internet (and be sure to include the link so your instructor can also view). Analyze the nonverbal communication by turning off the volume. Once you have observed and recorded the show for 20-30 minutes, review it again with the volume on.Write a paper reflecting on the differences and similarities between what you observed without volume and what you discovered with the volume on. Include information from the module readings as well as your own personal experience/knowledge.
