Body Language Read of Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson


In this photo they are so sweet. She is teetering on her heels and he is looking down to make sure she won't fall. He is so the gentleman with the Groomsman hold on her arm. (elbow close to side hand to his chest,)

She is holding on for balance, but not necessarily with love. She is a bit concerned about how she looks. I do like their left arms mirror, but for her it is partly to hold her purse, he is the one holding her. With their front teeth showing smiles they are very happy. I give them a 3 on Life & Style's True Love scale.

A Romeo and Juliet-like Love



















Adam Levine, 34, and new fiancee Behati Prinsloo, 24, had eyes for only each other in NYC's West Village on Nov.15th.  "They are so lovingly gazing at each other," observes Patti.  He is longing to caress her but is keeping it chaste by almost touching her through the protection of his pockets.  There is an innocent, very Romeo and Juliet-like love between. them according to Patti. This couple gets a 5 on the True Love Rating scale for Life & Style.

Study: Most execs sleep their way to the top

  • Results released this week from an online poll by a data visualization software company reveals that 71 percent of business executives surveyed have fallen asleep or felt sleepy during dull presentations.
  • The survey of 382 business managers was conducted by San Diego-based Infommersion. In addition to the 71 percent who admitted to dozing off, another 43 percent have caught other people napping during presentations.
  • The most difficult types of presentations to stay awake through were individual speeches, followed by training sessions, and then general meetings, according to the Infommersion poll. Interestingly, Webcasts were said to be the easiest type of conference to stay alert though with only 11 percent of respondents saying they were difficult to sit through, the company reported.
  • Survey participants said that the most important elements for a successful presentation were an 'animated and enthusiastic' speaker (at 51 percent), followed by an 'interesting and interactive' presentation (at 36 percent of the votes). It helped if the presenter was 'good looking,' 3 percent of respondents said.  

I spoke to an Association last week in Phoenix and we spent my two presentations laughing and having so much fun.  They were terrific!  If you know the secrets, you can have terrific audiences every time you have a meeting.  Participants in my public speaking training tell me with the new tips they energize their delivery and will never have people yawning and nodding off during their Power  Point presentations. Read my article How To Make Your Content and Delivery EngagingIf you want coaching or training on how to make your presentations more dynamic check out my website at Dynamic Delivery, Coaching Or Training or email me atPatti@PattiWood.net or call 678-358-6160.
