Use open and relaxed gestures to express your ideas and opinions. Maintain eye contact with your boss and other people when you speak or listen, but don't stare or look away too often.

I believe this is a staple attitude everyone should walk into a company with. Confidence and assertiveness can take one very far in life. It doesn’t only bring out the best in someone, but shows a sense of leadership and authority that many may not have the willingness to take. It can also bring great value internally and amongst clients as well, the ability to maintain great relationships while seeing the effort in the work/task put in.

2 Be attentive and respectful

Your facial expressions, head movements, and vocal tones can show your boss that you are attentive and respectful in your interactions. Smile, nod, and use appropriate facial expressions to show that you are interested and engaged in what your boss or others are saying. Avoid frowning, rolling your eyes, or yawning, as these can indicate boredom, disagreement, or disrespect. Use a clear and moderate voice tone to speak, and avoid interrupting, raising your voice, or mumbling. These nonverbal cues can signal that you are attentive and respectful to your boss and others, and that you value their input and feedback.

Use positive gestures, such as thumbs up, high fives, or clapping, to show your appreciation and support for your boss or others. Dress appropriately and professionally for your work environment, and avoid wearing anything that is too casual, sloppy, or distracting.

4 Be honest and trustworthy

Your eye contact, facial expressions, and gestures can show your boss that you are honest and trustworthy in your work and your communication. Maintain eye contact with your boss when you speak or listen, but avoid looking down, away, or to the side, as these can indicate dishonesty, nervousness, or evasion. Use facial expressions that match your words and emotions, and avoid lying, exaggerating, or hiding information. Use gestures that show openness and sincerity, such as showing your palms, pointing to yourself, or touching your chest. These nonverbal cues can signal that you are honest and trustworthy in your work and your communication, and that you are not hiding anything from your boss or others.

5 Be adaptable and flexible

Your posture, gestures, and facial expressions can show your boss that you are adaptable and flexible in your work and your situations. Adjust your posture, gestures, and facial expressions to match your boss's style and preferences, and avoid being too rigid or inconsistent. For example, if your boss is more formal and reserved, you can mirror their posture, gestures, and facial expressions to show respect and rapport. If your boss is more casual and expressive, you can mirror their posture, gestures, and facial expressions to show enthusiasm and involvement. These nonverbal cues can signal that you are adaptable and flexible in your work and your situations, and that you can handle different scenarios and expectations from your boss and others.
