Warmth and authority are the two types of body language a follower seeks in his or her leader. It is assumed that warmth is more consistent with feminine qualities. Authority, on the other hand, is more seen as a men’s quality.
In our subconscious, we attach a lot of importance to body language. Therefore you have to pay attention to the nonverbal signs you send as women if you want to be seen as a powerful, credible and a confident female leader.
The top three mistakes women leaders make are:
- - Too many head tilts, try to keep your head straight up in a more neutral position
- - Physically condense, do not minimize your size but claim your turf
- - Acting girlish, playing with your hair is not a powerful sign
