- You should ensure that you observe an individual’s body language and facial expressions when communicating with them
- E.g. If you say something that makes an individual appear to be visibly upset, you may want to apologise and ask what you have said to make them feel that way
- E.g. if an individual disengages from communication, you may suggest rescheduling your meeting for a time when they are feeling more positive
