🙌 Did you know 60% of our communication as humans is non-verbal?
This includes our voice volume, tone, inflection, facial movements, hand gestures and body movements. Becoming more cognizant of non-verbal communication can be a fascinating - and very useful - part of our practices as attorneys. 😃😆😉😌🥲
Consider if you are sitting in a deposition: You have a general sense that the deponent is nervous, but also recognize most deponents are nervous. 😬
Tell me this - Where do you look when you ask the hard questions of your deponent:
✔ Your notes?
✔ Your deponent's face - if so what part?
✔ Somewhere else?
