In order to maintain a commanding presence, and in order to position and posture yourself for control of any potentially
violent physical confrontation, and ultimately, for prevention of unnecessary defensive (or pre-emptive violence on your part. This comes under the heading of
non-verbal communication, and here that communication is used to send "don't mess with me" signals to individuals who many have some motive for attacking you violently.
I discuss many topics relating to both non-verbal and verbal communications and their uses in teaching, messaging, marketing, and "reading" other individuals in
The Sending Signals Blog. You might wish to view it and make it a favorite. I would strongly advise that you do.
A link to a superb audio interview with an expert at

2) being selected as a potential victim. This audio presentation is brief, but very informative and appears courtesy of

reflexive rapid recall of the material covered.

A truly masterful commander avoids a physical encounter while maintaining the absolute respect of his or her adversaries, would-be attackers, detractors and subordinates.
Physical violence should be used only as a last resort -- in situations where there exists
a clear and present danger. A skilled commander (or commando) has a powerful intuitive sense of any threat and is always instantly prepared to address the threat.
Stay Safe.
