Things to Watch For
When we meet, what should we be watching for from our employees?
- Rejection of our comments (for example, the person physically moves further from us by sitting back in their chair or slouching in their seat)
- Anger on the face and in their posture
- Lack of understanding or comprehension (such as furrowed brows, pursed lips)
What are some other non-verbal signals we must be careful not to communicate to employees?
- Boredom (if you look like you’re just going through the motions of yet another performance review, they will see it)
- Anger (our own flushed face, or the way we put things on our desk will all convey our own mood)
- Arrogance
