Happy Handshake Day, I-Fians!!!

We're pretty sure that most of you don't know this, but TODAY…June 28th, is Handshake day. 😛

Handshakes are used all around the world . They are used upon meeting, greeting, parting, and offering congratulations, or completing an agreement. 😊

Interesting Facts

  • According to a study led by a University of Alabama associate professor of psychology, more open men 👍🏼 had a less firm handshake. 😳😳
  • It was the opposite for women, women with firm handshakes were deemed more open than women with less firm handshakes.

Okay, well think back to the last time you got a limp handshake 👎🏼 or a bone crusher. What impression did it make on you? 🤔 Was it distracting? Disgusting? Shocking?

Whatever your reaction, you probably weren't feeling positive about the other person. 😒

So, what do you think a handshake discloses of a person?

Is a handshake part of a first impression?

I didn't know about Handshake Day,......... but anyways a Happy Handshake Day.
Something I haven't forgotten till date: when I went for interview for my first job, the manager of that company came and introduced himself and shook hands and he nearly broke my bones!!! 😆
When people congratulate me and they give me a limp handshake I have the feeling that they don't congratulate me wholehearted.

Definitely a handshake IS a part of first impression.
