Here's How To Use Body Language To Get A Promotion At Work
1. Mirror Your Managers

When speaking to your managers and bosses, mirror their body language and the way they carry themselves. 

This trick helps to build rapport and can help you build relationships better. We tend to imitate people we’re close to when we feel close to them. 

2. Feel Confident With This Power Pose

Stand up, relax your shoulders and put your hands on your hips. It’ll help you look more confident (and hopefully it’ll translate into a feeling too)! 

3. Smile

It might seem like the easiest thing to do (and it is!) but it’s got plenty of benefits. 

Not only will you look a lot friendly, you’ll feel more relaxed too. 

Whenever we’re doing difficult tasks, our face tends to tense up and our brows tend to furrow — sending stress signals to across our body.

4. Cross Your Arms Across Your Midsection

According to science, this pose helps you feel a little more confident and determined. 

5. Get More Ideas By Lying Down Or Relaxing

Based on a study from the Australian National University, lying down could actually help you generate better and more creative ideas. 

If you can’t lie down, get more relaxed. It’ll work the same way! 

6. Feel More Confident During Meetings By Tensing Up

It might seem counter intuitive but tensing up just before you’re going into a meeting could actually help you reduce stress during meetings. 

Plus, you’ll feel more focused too!
