Facial appearance

Body language

Response

3 scientific ways!

First…Watch your tone!

University of Glasgow’s research

“Hello”→personality traits (trustworthiness, dominance…etc)

Dominant…(women) higher voice (men) lower voice

Trustworthy…(women) alternated the pitch (men) raise the tone

Second…Perfect your handshake!

Handshake → approachable, positive aura. (University of illinois)

⭐ Don’t forget to be firm, confident and friendly!

Third…Make eye contact while speaking

The failure to make eye → rude, shy or introverted.

On the contrary…

Making eye contact→smarter
