Communication at work

Your friend Shay just emailed you the two photos above. He plans to use one of these photos as his
professional profile picture on LinkedIn, where he hopes to make career contacts.
Shay knows you’ve been developing your self and social awareness skill throughout this course. He asks for
your help choosing which photo will communicate the right message to potential employers. Using what you’ve
learned so far about self and social awareness, please provide your impressions of both images. What
nonverbal message is Shay sending in each picture? Then, choose the image you believe Shay should use
professionally and explain why.
