Your body language is an integral part of your personality, so you may be jeopardizing your career with your reckless attitude. In fact, Deborah Tool has this to say on the subject:<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Body language is a very powerful tool. So much so that we learned to speak with our body language before we learned to speak with words. Therefore, it is clear that 80% of our speech becomes more intelligible with our body language, not with our words.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">A stronger body language communication is possible by paying attention to a few small details.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>1) Exaggerated Hand-Arm Gestures<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd1.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Such exaggerated hand-arm gestures can create the impression that you are avoiding telling the truth. So if you express what you want to say in smaller gestures, you can show that you have a solid self-confidence and you have nothing to hide.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>2) Joining the Arms<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd2.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Crossing your arms in front of you while speaking means that you are building a wall against the other person and closing yourself to everything the other person says. Even if you smile as if you are interested or listening, you can push the other party into thinking that you are not listening to them. Even if you feel comfortable doing this move, avoid crossing your arms in front of someone whose ideas you are interested in.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"9068969645\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>3) Inconsistency<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd3.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">The inconsistency between your speech and facial expressions starts to raise suspicions that something is wrong with the person in front of you. For example; Looking at you with a nervous smile while rejecting an offer won&#8217;t help you get what you want. On the contrary, the person in front of you may think that your purpose is different and may stay away from cooperating with you.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>4) Keeping Yourself Away From People<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd4.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">If you isolate yourself from the person in front of you while in a dialogue, that person may think that you are not interested in the subject, that you are uncomfortable or even that you do not trust him. Instead, you can approach the person you are in a dialogue with more sincerely, and even show attitudes that show that you are listening by shaking your head from time to time and supporting the subjects he\/she is talking about.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"9068969645\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>5) Humpback<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd5.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">It is a bad posture and also a sign of disrespect. Maybe verbally to your boss, &#8220;I don&#8217;t understand why I have to listen to you.&#8221; You may not be able to say, but listening to the meeting by slouching during a meeting can clearly indicate that you are not satisfied with where you are. Therefore, if you sit with your shoulders and back straight instead of slouching, you can display a stronger stance.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>6) Avoiding Eye Contact<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd6.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Averting your eyes from the person in front of you while in a dialogue means that you are hiding something from him.

Making eye contact is one of the most basic things in a dialogue, but when this is overdone, it can become too oppressive for the other party. According to a study by Americans, the ideal time for eye contact varies between 7 and 10 seconds.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"8276300176\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>8) Constantly Looking at the Clock<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/bd8.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">When you are in a conversation with someone, constantly looking at a clock near you indicates that you disrespect the other person and even that you are an individual with a big <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/en\/what-is-ego-what-are-id-ego-and-superego-what-makes-people-egoistic\/\"   title=\"ego\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">ego<\/a>.
