Body language is part of effective communication. The three main parts of body language are posture, facial expression and gestures. Posture emphatically conveys a person's message (Broudstein, 2001). The message can also be conveyed by studying your posture. For example, when team members do not sit in a correct posture, this shows that they are unable to receive the information provided by the project manager. According to Broudstein (2001), a person's face can communicate with others through expressions such as smiling, strong, confident, worried about something. For example, when a person shows that they are not angry, they will smile. The expression can be an effective communication because people can easily understand their emotion by looking at the expression. Sometimes, smiling at others will express positive vibes and confidence in conveying the message as people will listen to it sincerely. For example, when a project manager smiles during a briefing session to team members, it will give him confidence in delivering the briefing and the team members will focus on understanding the message that was conveyed
