We are communicating all the time, whether we think so or not. In face to face communication, body language can make up to 55% of the message. Our words and the way we speak make up less than the majority.
As you move through your next team meeting, notice what the body language of the team says. Ask them to notice what their body language says. Is it aligned with the way they feel and the image they want to project?
This week be more aware of your body language and how it is opening up conversations, and also shutting them down. Are your arms folded? Where are you looking?
Have a great Thursday,
