Erica Dhawan's book, "Digital Body Language," which explores the complexities of modern communication in the digital age. Dhawan argues that traditional nonverbal cues, crucial for understanding meaning in face-to-face interactions, are largely absent in digital exchanges, leading to widespread misunderstanding, anxiety, and distrust in workplaces. Drawing on her personal experiences as a first-generation American from an Indian family, where interpreting subtle cues was essential, she highlights how digital tools like email, text, and video calls create new "body language" norms. The book aims to equip readers with strategies and a framework—Communicating Carefully, Collaborating Confidently, Trusting Totally, and Valuing Visibly—to master these digital cues, bridge generational and cultural divides, and foster clearer, more empathetic interactions. It provides practical advice on everything from punctuation and capitalization to response times and channel selection, ultimately seeking to improve efficiency, psychological safety, and connection in remote and hybrid work environments.
