Did you know that first impressions are formed within 7-30 seconds of meeting a person? And a large percentage of that initial impression is nonverbal. In other words, we take each other in, size each other up, and we do it all before a single word is spoken.

First impressions run the gamut from people you encounter in your daily round, to networking events, to job interviews, public speaking and even dates. There are steps you can take to put the best foot forward in every scenario.
