Employee Body Language Revealed: Eyes, Head

Sorry it's been awhile, everyone. I've been out collecting resources for the site and been preoccupied by previous commitments. But I said the next post would be on the 21st, and it is. Enjoy!

Employee Body Language Revealed

Chapter Three Summary

Eyes to the ceiling: person is trying to remember something
Eyes downcast, to the left: person is thinking
Eyes downcast, to the right: person is displaying emotion
Eyes downcast (straight): embarassment, sympathy
Eyes sideways (left or right): person is uncertain, threatening
Eyes constantly on the move: person is uncomfortable or inclined otherwise

Head tilting: submission
Head ducking: submission, lack of comfort

When someone lies, their pupils don't dilate.

When someone's eyes are focused on work while his eyebrows are "elevated in the forehead," he may not actually be concentrating (pg 61).
