One of the nonverbal cues that lets a speaker know you are listening to him or her is giving the
speaker your undivided attention. In other words, don't continue reading a report or working on
your computer during the conversation. Also, don't look at your watch frequently. Doing so
signals a preoccupation with other matters and possible conflicting time commitments.
