Last week, I fumbled through a crucial pitch meeting, and it hit me – my body was betraying my words. Time for an intensive body language training!
Here’s what I’ve learned about making a lasting impression:
👉🏻 Stand tall, feet shoulder-width apart. It’s not just about looking confident—it helps you feel it too.
👉🏻 Eye contact is golden, especially on video calls. I now keep a sticky note by my camera that says “Look here!” A bit unconventional? Perhaps. Effective? Absolutely.
👉🏻 Hands out of pockets, people! I used to be a chronic pocket-dweller, but open gestures invite open conversations.
The game-changer for me? Smiling genuinely. It’s not about pretending, but finding something in each interaction to truly appreciate.
I’m curious: What’s your body language strength? Or better yet, what’s a habit you’re working on improving?
Let’s share and grow together. After all, in the world of business, sometimes what we don’t say speaks the loudest.
