判断题X 纠错The secret of the successful handshake is no secret anymore.
Management consultant Robert E. Brown explains what shaking hands is all about
in his book The Art, the Power, the Magic: How to Read Hands that
Talk.
For example, to do the "All-American Handshake", you have
to look into another person’s eyes, grasp his or her whole hand, and pump it two
or three times. According to Brown, this is the hand-shake of a good listener
and trustworthy person.
Politicians and
salespeople often use the "Two-Handed Shake" because it’s extra-friendly.
Two-handed shakers put their left hand on the other person’s arm or shoulder as
they shake hands. This can feel too friendly to some people, so it’s best to use
it with good friends.
Watch out for people with
handshakes that pull your fingers, or twist and crush your hand. If you get one
of these handshakes, the person is trying to intimidate you.
Two more uncomfortable handshakes are the "Palm Pinch" and the "Dead Fish". A
Palm Pincher shakes your hand with only a few fingers. In the Dead Fish shake,
the person’s hand slides out of the handshake. It’s possible that the people
with these handshakes are embarrassed or shy.
Shaking hands is an
important part of body language. It can identify someone as truthful, friendly,
powerful or nervous. It’s hard to be successful without mastering a good
handshake such as the All-American. If this isn’t your natural handshake, don’t
worry. Mr. Brown says that you can change your handshake with lots of practice.
So, go on out there and start shaking hands. Just think of all the people you
can meet.
