PSA for business owners (current or future): If you've played Sims before, you'll remember having them talk in the mirror to increase charisma. While we're not sure that talking to yourself is such a great way to up your social interaction game, Sims was right in that nonverbal communication is a huge deal — especially in the business world.

Mastering the art of body language can actually help you advance your career, increase communication skills, and help you get ahead — no matter what line of work you're in.

As an entrepreneur, numerous aspects of your personal presence can affect success: an engaging personality, confidence without cockiness, being fair and open-minded when it comes to negotiations, and the ability to evoke excitement out of coworkers or clients are all a big part of getting head. Lucky for you, Udemy offers a Body Language for Entrepreneurs class that can teach you the nonverbal social interaction skills that you may have overlooked in the past.

Though the class is aimed at business owners, literally anyone can benefit from a bit of body language 101. Regardless of your job (whether you’re a CEO or still climbing your way up the corporate ladder) the bottom line is that you’ll most likely be working with people all day. So why not perfect your people skills and show bosses, customers, and clients that you mean business? (In the most endearing way possible.)

The online course can be done wherever, whenever, as all 5.5 hours can be watched on your TV or mobile device. For $15, you can learn the quieter secrets of professional social interactions and get your business game on point.
