Have you ever been in the room with a business leader who checks his cell phone every 5 minutes, fidgets with his computer/pen/stuff on desk, or talks to you while looking at the traffic passing outside his cabin?
How connected/inspired do you feel?
Body language can often be the difference between a great, a good & a not so effective leader.
What Works
Open body (shoulders and chest) - receptive
Straight posture – confident
Normal fingers – composed
Eye contact - engaged
What Doesn't
Close body (shoulders and chest) –
inert
Stooping posture – unsure
Fidgety fingers - nervous
No eye contact - distracted
