Trying harder to understand each other
Without realizing it, there are so many little non-verbal cues we pick up from others in IRL interactions. Someone’s posture. The tapping of a knee. The rate at which someone is breathing. A slight change in facial expression. Fidgeting. Adjusting. All of this information enters our brain, giving us a well-rounded understanding of how the people in that interaction are feeling and what they’re trying to express. But we don’t get those cues on Zoom, which can leave us feeling socially confused.
