Research says using these 6 persuasive body-language positions during a talk can lead to success.

CHAPTERS

00:00 Your ideas are important–but so is your body language.
00:47 Position 1: The box
01:10 Position 2: Holding the ball
01:25 Position 3: Pyramid hands
01:52 Position 4: Wide stance
02:05 Position 5: Palms up
02:22 Position 6: Palms down

The next time you give a presentation, try to have it recorded, then review the video with the sound off, watching only your body language. How did you stand and gesture? Did you use any of these positions? If not, think about how you might do so the next time you’re in front of an audience, or even just speaking to your boss or a big client. Practice in front of a mirror, then with friends, until they feel natural.

Non-verbal communication won’t necessarily make or break you as a leader, but it might help you achieve more successful outcomes.

Nice
Almost said, Clinton's initial style was similar to palms up but for the later, the elbow are much lower

Live speech coach here. Please take care. This list is not well explained. It's more like the list of do's and don'ts parents give teenagers before the prom, mysterious and ungrounded. For example if you want to see the box go wrong watch any number of TED talk speakers. Also, by the way, the pyramid is commonly called steeple. What's undeniably true is that leaders and executives MUST speak with gestures to be successful as a credible leader.
