Actions speak louder than words--but what are they saying?

Your teachers were right. If you want to go far, you need to watch your language.

In particular, we mean one four-letter word: B-O-D-Y.

With over 90% of communication conveyed non-verbally, body language might be the one you use most. And just like high school Spanish, mastering it requires work.

Luckily, you don't have to wait until the next test (your big interview, for instance) to hone your skills. The new Body Language Cards is a set of 84 flashcards designed to help you understand a wide range of movements and gestures, and use them to communicate better. Each card shows a figure making a specific gesture, then on the flip side, explains what the body is saying (psst...explanations can vary by culture and gender).
