3.0 out of 5 stars Beware Defective Books
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2022
First of all, I want to say this is a great book!!! So good that I purchased it for our whole team at work (35 copies!). Unfortunately, there are several pages that are basically unreadable due to a printing error. I'm not sure if this was a problem with just a specific number of copies, or all the books in the print run. For this order, Amazon hasn't provided a way to return the books or contact the seller, so we're not sure what to do with them (other than just skip those pages?).

5.0 out of 5 stars With 70% communication from behind a digital screen this book helps you navigate the new normal.
Reviewed in India on July 28, 2021
“You see, these days, we don’t talk the talk or even walk the talk. We write the talk.”

Roughly 70% of all communication among teams is virtual and 50% of the time the “tone” of our emails is misinterpreted. Non-verbal cues make up 60-80% of face-to face communication. Humans rely on body language to connect and build trust, but with most of our communication happening from behind a screen, traditional body language signals are no longer visible.

This is where Digital Body Language becomes important. Signs that were implicit when communicating in the physical world have to now be made explicit by tailoring the communication we send out.

This book, supported by case stories, presents strategies to enhance your digital body language, thereby strengthening your communication. An important aspect it covers is the differences in Digital Body Language across gender, generation and culture. What is normal to one, may not be to another which often creates biases.

In the new modern workplace not limited to offices, or communication mediums not limited to email, physical and digital body language are inseparable.

Providing a better understanding of how digital body language can help build trust and authenticity, this book will transform the way you connect by allowing you to build stronger relationships, be it in your professional space or in your personal relationships.
