Gesture Example

Simon Sinek

Notice how Simon Sinek gestures as he’s making his points in this Ted talk.​

His gestures may be slightly exaggerated because he’s on stage, but I’d guess this is pretty close to what we might see off-stage from Simon.

Gestures help make your stories, jokes, or small talk more engaging.

If you’ve ever struggled with being higher energy, or showing enthusiasm, gesturing more will help.

0:27 - Notice the hands.
0:52 - Gesture as he says "running into enemy fire."
1:15 - Gesture as he talks about the GoPro.
5:59 - Arms open as he talks about the Airport.
