Body Language - Not for Dummies

An introductory short video, designed to examine the question 'is body language really a subject to concern us as business people'?

Well, yes, in short.

The video is just 6 minutes long.

Colin W D McLean excellent short video insight into the fascinating world if body language. Do you think it equally applies in virtual meetings?

We can all associate with the scenarios described on the video. It is clear many of us miss vital signs in visual communication. Interesting post.

I miss this aspect of meetings, the body language. I have never been a fan of Zoom based meetings as you can't get the feel for someone fully through a camera.

Absolutely Colin! From how we pose in our headshots to how we sit at interview to the body language used in our advertising photos and videos we can make a real difference if we consider and use body language more deliberately. Where it can become amusing perhaps is when both parties are deliberately attempting to mirror the other!
