Mark Bowden is an English author on body language and human behavior. His techniques have been used by Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

His work is derived from evolutionary psychology, behavioral psychology and embodied cognition. One claim by Bowden is GesturePlane System, or the specific use of open palm hand gestures in what he coins as the "TruthPlane" (the horizontal plane at navel height on the human body) to create feelings of trust, credibility, and confidence when communicating. This was described in his 2010 book, Winning Body Language.

He is also the President of The National Communication Coach Association of Canada.
