If you are not confident enough about your body language take help of the following tips.

Before entering the room, take a look of yourself. Make sure your hands are dry, warm. Shake hands firmly, yet don’t overpower. Sit straight, yet comfortable. Erect posture reflects energy, enthusiasm, and self control. Don’t move quite often. Make yourself feel comfortable. Slouching posture doesn’t reflect a positive attitude. Sitting on edge of the chair is to be avoided, as it reflects nervousness and lack of self-confidence.

Make good eye contact, but avoid staring. Do not let your eyes wander. While answering questions look into the interviewer’s eyes. Even while listening to the interviewer maintain direct eye contact. It makes you appear confident, attentive and pleasant. Avoid aggressive stares, blinking often, wandering eye movements, staring below. Over eye contact can again make you appear bossy, challenging and seductive.

Control your hands by being aware of what you are doing with them. Set them free, loosely clasped in your lap or on the table. Keep hands off your face. Avoid folding hands near chest, it shows defensive attitude and mind blocks. Too much hands movement is distracting. Less of movement makes you look in control, confident and disciplined. Avoid putting hands in pocket.

Place your feet firmly on the ground and avoid fidgeting. Crossing legs are okay, but shouldn’t invite too frequent crossing and re-crossings. Crossing legs at ankles appear smart and professional. Leg movements are distracting. Point knees towards the interviewer.

Speak in a clear, controlled, well-modulated voice. Avoid monotone and same pitch. Breathe properly in-between. Tone should be professional and confident. Don’t let your personal emotions reflect in your voice or words. Smile and nod, but not too loud or often.

The first place you should start, is knowing what you’re talking about.  Having a well written presentation is all well and good, but you need to really know your stuff.  No presentation is complete without a Q&A period at the end.  If you don’t really know what you’re talking about, you won’t be able to answer those questions.  That would make you look really bad, so know your stuff!

Understand your audience, because you’ll have to tailor your presentation to them.  Are you trying to sell an idea or a product?  Are you trying to make a name for yourself and what you’ve accomplished?  Or is your presentation purely to educate somebody about a certain work related topic?  All questions you should ask yourself when preparing, as the answers should change how you decide to do your presentation.  The way an idea is presented when you’re trying to sell it, is much, much different than how you would teach.

Now plan your presentation.  Make a detailed outline of the topics you want to touch upon, and decide the best order possible for you to bring them across.  Consider your audience, and the goal of your presentation, and choose the best arrangement to serve those needs.  Try to influx your ability into this part, so that you can ensure your presentation will flow, and will gain the attention you want.

Finally, in the actual delivery of your presentation, make sure your body language is on point.  You want to appear positive, and in a good mood at all times.  Even if things aren’t going your way, stay insightful and courteous.  Dress to impress, so stay professional, and keep your body language positive.  That means good posture, and healthy gestures with your hands while speaking.  Practice your speech so that you aren’t nervous during delivery, and so that you don’t fumble across any words.  With the practice and knowledge on hand, you’re on the right path to making your presentation successful.

Work on your body language.  You want to have a good healthy natural posture, and to look positive and upbeat.  Smile, not a ridiculous fake smile, but a genuine smile that shows you are a positive person.  People want positive attitudes in the office, as they make getting work done all the easier.  Nobody wants more negativity in the air, and appearing as though you’d only add some is a very bad thing.  So make eye contact, keep that smile working, and stay relaxed and comfortable.

Make sure that you’re a friendly and fun person through professional, and appropriate joking or laughing, or conversation.  Stay away from politically charged topics that people tend to have strong opinions about, like religion, government, etc.  Stick to more simple ideas or topics, or anecdotes about your own life and experiences.  Anything to show that you’re an open person, and one that is genuinely interested in communicating with others.

Keep your attire professional, and make sure that you match.  You want to choose clothing that’s flattering, as well as professional.  Anything to help you look more positive and friendly.  Pick an outfit that says you’re a friendly open person.  Hardworking, but also a good person to have around, to make the environment more comfortable for everyone around.
