cues include the dress code, body language, facial expressions eye contact, and time . These features show somebody’s expressions apart from the actual words spoken verbally.
Eye contact is an example of a non-verbal that I always do on purpose. This cue is very crucial in my workplace because it shows a sign of trust and truthness. Eye contact helps in building trust and confidence among others when having an official communication. Maintaining eye contact reduces tension because of its natural ways of communicating hence it allows proper and effective communication. Although in my workplace I avoid too much eye contact because it portrays superiority and lack of trust in your boss. This non-verbal cue has greatly helped me in accomplishing my intentions because I have tried to maintain proper eye contact according to different contexts.
Clothing is always the first impression one gets from people. They always make assumptions and judgments based on the dressing hence clothing indicates age, social class, and political views. When not in uniform im always in different outfits according to the weather and background. I love wearing tight jeans because they are comfortable. However, people have diverse opinions about the dress code according to religion and culture therefore they have different opinions about the dress code.
In summary, non-verbal cues are very vital in communication. The way people agree or disagree in a statement through their facial expressions and eye contact is very important because you will judge their feelings. Therefore Nonverbal cues deliver different messages according to the interpreter. Nonverbal communication helps in maintaining good communication with others because the nodding of the head, clapping and body language you are reassured of the message is well delivered.
