Body Language Matters

People may not remember what you said, but they will remember how you made them feel – Maya Angelou

Most experts agree 70% to 93% of all communication is nonverbal in nature!

The way we connect with people to do business has completely changed.  As more organisations are embracing video conferencing, Zoom and MS Teams long term, our ability to project virtual presence is quickly becoming a key to success. 

Are you making a lasting digital impression? Which of your body language habits is reinforcing people’s positive perception of you as a leader? 

Be mindful of your body language – Maintain appropriate eye contact, look into the camera, focus on your posture, be aware of your facial expressions, and keep your body movements calm and relaxed.

Giving off the right non verbal cues is extremely important.  When your body language, facial expressions and tone of voice match your spoken words, your message is reinforced and helps your team, colleagues and clients better understand you.
