Body language is a powerful tool that communicates confidence, openness, and credibility without a single spoken word. Adopting an upright, relaxed posture, maintaining natural eye contact, and using open gestures signal that you are approachable and confident. Avoiding closed-off cues like crossed arms or hunched shoulders helps create an inviting atmosphere, encouraging others to engage with you. Mirroring positive non-verbal signals from your counterparts can build instant rapport. In the workplace, consistent use of professional body language reinforces your message, enhances leadership presence, and ensures that your unspoken cues support your verbal communication.
