Here's how you can use body language to boost your networking success.
When at a networking event, head-to-toe stance is important to both invite people to connect with you as well as indicate to someone you've connected with that you are engaged in the conversation. However being aware of the other person's stance is also important as people may misinterpret gestures such as crossed arms. This is often taken as either an aggressive or uninterested mode but can also indicate that someone is anxious or in a few cases, simply cold.
