In every society nonverbal communication is one of the most powerful tools that a person can use to interpret the message that is being delivered. Even though verbal communication is fairly straightforward, nonverbal communication allows others to sense the true emotions of the person that is expressing them. For example even though a person may say that they are not irritated, their usage of voice may display otherwise. Nonverbal communication not only reveals hidden messages, but it also complements, substitutes, and exaggerates verbal communication.
Of all communication, nonverbal is the utmost important. In order to comprehend how the use of nonverbal communication affects the success of a leader it is first vital to recognize what nonverbal communication actually is. Nonverbal communication does not concentrate on words themselves, but rather the physical expression of a message. It is imperative to recognize that nonverbal communication can significantly influence the focus of a message (Knapp, Hall and Horgan). Nonverbal cues are always powerful indicators of what the communicator means and feels. These cues include; eye contact, gesticulations, posture, paralanguage, and overall facial expression. However, that is only the tip of the iceberg. In reality, nonverbal communication also incorporates spatial relationships, artifacts, and appearances. Also, environmental elements, such as seating, arrangement and setting have a large effect on leadership and credibility.
Currie (2007) states Effective Verbal Communication is important when building relationships with clients, customers, and the media (pg 1). Verbal communication is important along with listening skills so that communication between parties is clear. Verbal communication is accompanied by sign language called non verbal communication.

One of the most important skills you can have in order to thrive, in not only your personal relationships, but in your work and school environment is being able to communicate properly. There are many factors that contribute to being able to interact successfully. In this paper I will discuss non-verbal and verbal language; and I will explain how I use them in my daily life and its importance in my future career.

Every communication interaction involves two parts: the verbal and the nonverbal. Furthermore, every person is always communicating even when they are not saying a word, thus, it is possible to send an exclusively nonverbal message but it is not possible to send an exclusively verbal message. Nonverbal cues in the interaction are always more powerful indicators of what a speaker means and what the speaker feels. Consider a very simple example: a mother tells her two-year old to stop running around the house but as she makes her direction, she is smiling. The toddler gets two messages: verbally to stop running; nonverbally the smile means mom is pleased with what he is doing. Which direction will the child follow; probably, the second one - mom is pleased regardless of her words so he will continue doing what he was doing.

I never knew until reading this chapter that we do these things all most every time we communicate. These are things I took for granted until now. I now know that I will pay
