Formation, development and improvement of non-linguistic means

Non-linguistic tools are an integral and inseparable part of a speaker’s training. Each teacher / lecturer / trainer uses specific methods in the formation and development of non-linguistic means of facial expressions, gestures, postures, gaze, movement in space, and dress code. Practical training is presented in popular books, in video lectures as online resources.

In Bulgarian, one of the most useful books is that by Daniela Ilieva, in which recommendations for non-linguistic means in a business environment, in particular as training for future managers, are presented in text and visual form:

Илиева, Д. (2020). Комуникация навреме и намясто. София: ИК „Божидар Данев” ООД.

Ilieva, D. (2020). Communication on time and on place. Sofia: “Bozhidar Danev” Ltd.
