Practice a firm handshake: A handshake should not last beyond 2-3 pump
Make eye contact while talking to your colleagues- it shows interest. Don’t forget to nod while listening to them. When a person tilts his head slightly to his right or left, it shows he is interested in listening to you. Do this often!
Never point fingers! That shows an aggressive side of you. Instead use palm up position. It shows that you're trustworthy, honest and have nothing to hide
Stop rolling your eyes! It shows you’re annoyed, skeptic or don’t take the other person seriously
Not feeling cold but still crossing your arms? You are simply blocking out others and what they have to say. If you want to have a healthy conversation, uncross those arms now!
Don’t forget: Your appearance (grooming and hygiene), body fragrance or odor and time sense (good or bad) are also communicating something about you!
Maintain appropriate distance! Don’t get too close to your colleagues- that can intimidate them or make them uncomfortable. That being said, standing too far away from them can make them feel insulted. The ideal distance between you and a colleague should be between one arm distance away

Does your partner avoid eye contact? When someone avoids eye contact, it could mean that they fear rejection or they are hiding something. If your partner is blinking more than usual, they could be apprehensive about something that they want to talk about
Do you often distracted by the phone or TV or that video game while your partner or friend is talking. Stop that now! It conveys that you don't care and aren’t really interested in knowing what they are talking about
Have a genuine smile. A genuine smile crinkles the eyes and lights up your face
