If you’d like people to see you as being more trustworthy, you need to watch your body language. So what can you do? According to rd.com, you should:
- maintain eye contact
- uncross your arms and legs
- sit in front of your desk rather than behind it
- touch a person lightly on their elbow or shoulder (I actually like doing this, but it’s not acceptable everywhere, so one needs to be very careful!)
- smile and nod
- keep the palms of your hands open
- sit at the same level
