[Job-Discussions] Question about Non-verbal communication with sighted people

[ajharmon26 at gmail.com]

Hello

I'm currently taking a class online about effective communications in the
workplace, and I had a question about non-verbal communication. I've always
heard how important it is to make eye contact with an individual you're
trying to communicate with, but I wanted to know if there is any additional
"unwritten rules" about this? Is it better to only maintain it while
speaking, or while also listening to the other participants in the
conversation? Can you make people uncomfortable if you try to maintain eye
contact too long or too little?

 

Thank you in advance for any help on this topic.

 

Sincerely

 

Andrew Harmon
