! STOP AND THINK!

During the course of a week, and as part of your normal
routine, observe people’s body language. See if you can tell
anything about the relationship between the people who are
communicating. For example, what differences can you see
between the body language of a supervisor and employer in the
workplace, and between two friends who are communicating?
Record your observations in the table below.

Key Fact

Remember that communication is two-way and that your own
words, tone of voice and body language can convey a lot about
you to the client.
