Course Content

The eternal questions: what is pretended, what is true?

One of the most important aspects in human communication is the correct evaluation of the dialog partner. Whom can you trust? Did he say the truth? Does your dialog partner actually feels angry at this point? Is your daughter really feeling well?

Your task in human communication is to decide, which nonverbal signal is on the one hand an indicator for true feelings and intentions and which nonverbal signal is just a "communicative gesture".

Since the year 2000, the nonverbal communication research has made quantum leaps - due to new technologies and findings from brain research. In this seminar, we show you this exciting and (for the mst people) unknown world.

Field of Application - everywhere!

An efficacious nonverbal communication assures reliable success: From business negotiations, satisfying personal relationships to the care of old people.

Science with heart and soul

The contents of our traings are completely based on international accredited scientific findings from the research area of nonverbal communication, psychology, anthropology and urban ethology.

How does an Online-Training look like?

Single View

The training can be viewed either in single-view or multi-view mode. The single-view mode only shows one person at a time. All course participants are still following via chat and audio. The course trainer can assign the camera to each participant.

On the screen, you can now show presentations (e.g. Keynote, PowerPoint) films or do whiteboard collaboration - like in a normal training.

Multi-View Mode

In this mode you can see 6 people via video stream at the same time. This is very interesting in group conversation and comes very close to a normal group setting.

If you want to split the group in even smaller sub-groups, there are infinitive rooms for discussions and team work in small groups. You can also share your screen with other participants.

Additional Functions

Our online trainings offers many functions. Here a short selection:

1. Whiteboard Collaboration

Course participants develop together new ideas and collaborate on common tasks (like on a flip chart or blackboard.

2. Collaboration in small groups

The training can always be devided in several rooms, so that small groups can collaborate in small teams.

3. Desktop-Sharing

You want to share your screeen with others? No Problem. All participants and the trainer can share their screen with the other participants.

4. Privacy protection

You can decide, how much the other participants shell know about you. You can attend without video and even without audio. Just use a fictional user name and attent the meeting via Chat.

Especially top managers have problems attending trainings. For them it is difficult to show what they do not know. Now, they do not have to bother with these problems any more.
