Editor's Notes

  • #2 Most of us go about our day-to-day lives having conversations with people without giving much thought to the ‘way’ we communicate. However during our work it’s as much about ‘how’ we portray ourselves when we communicate as it is about the message we are trying to get across. Your body language says far more about you than the words will ever do. In fact, research studies have estimated that perhaps as much as 55% of all communication is based upon what people see and not what they hear. So, let’s take a look at some of the most common aspects of body language and what it conveys about us.
