I prefer face-to-face communication, although I do not consider myself a good verbal communicator at all. But I believe that 50% of communication is bodily expression. That's why nowadays communication is much colder because there are intermediaries, technology and its conditions. There is nothing like a face-to-face conversation.
Body language is a very large component of communication and one that can be lost on video chats and certainly through other firms of digital communication; I think that's one of the big disconnections and one of the causes of poor communication.
I agree!
