Ted Toussaint

 
 

Ted is a Behavioral Scientist, Executive Coach, and Body Language expert, fascinated by human behavior. She holds a Master’s Degree in Behavioral Analysis from the University of Nijmegen in the Netherlands and is a certified Body Language and Co-active coach. 

During her international work as a researcher and lecturer, she specialized in nonverbal communication and rapport building. It intrigues her that the world is becoming increasingly sophisticated, while much of our nonverbal behavior can still be explained from an evolutionary perspective. Her company Beyond Expression, combines knowledge of psychology, neurology, and nonverbal communication, to create inspiring and engaging training and coaching sessions that build people’s confidence in their nonverbal presence, leadership, and charisma. ‘Leadership is body language at first sight.’

Ted also works as a certified Co-active coach and has over ten years of experience in experiential coaching where she often applies outdoor activities in the mountains to evoke personal development in individuals and teams. 

Ted is a passionate climber and trail runner. She recently published her first book about an incredible journey she undertook with her autistic brother. This work is not just an academic exploration but a heartfelt invitation for readers to embrace curiosity about those who appear different.
