Your Body Language May Shape Who You Are | Amy Cuddy | TED

Amy Cuddy’s TED talk “Your Body Language May Shape Who You Are” explores how the way we hold ourselves influences both how others perceive us and how we perceive ourselves. She introduces the concept of “power posing,” standing in confident postures even when feeling uncertain, and explains how this practice can increase feelings of confidence and potentially improve our chances of success. Cuddy also acknowledges ongoing debate among social scientists about the robustness and reproducibility of her findings, pointing viewers to her response for further context.
