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?
