Why you should audit your body language in the workplace


Many of us KNOW our body language influences our communication. But how often do you audit your actions?

Yes! Audit.

Habits come and go. Perhaps you stopped avoiding eye contact. Nice going! But what if you compensate by fidgeting? Do you even know which habits you should stop?
