Body language tips

• Stand tall and take a stance of confidence and
  power. Dont slouch keep your posture straight.
  Sitting with both feet on the floor displays a
  more confident stance.
• Avoid speaking in high-pitched voice. Instead
  cultivate a lower pitch that appears more
  relaxed, empathetic and confident.

5

• Eye contact is a very vital aspect of body
  language. It can be a critical factor in your
  success be it in an interview, negotiation or
  even interpersonal relationships. Maintain eye
  contact but dont go to the extent of intense
  gazing. Positive eye contact usually reveals a
  sincere and trustworthy person.
• A smile is one curve that sets most things
  straight and the effect it can have on people is
  tremendous. A genuine smile makes you appear
  trustworthy and approachable.

6

• Put your hands to best advantage. Gesture and
  speech are inter-related. Let your hands flow
  with your speech. Be open in your gestures. While
  gesticulating, it is preferable to hold your
  hands not higher than waist level though. But
  fidgeting and playing with your hair or jewellery
  is a strict no-no.
• Likewise drumming fingers on the desk or bouncing
  your feet. Such gestures indicate nervousness.

• Learn to get your handshake right. A limp or
  wimpy handshake can cost you dearly. While you
  need not squeeze the other hand, keep your
  handshake firm and powerful.
