How can individuals effectively navigate and adapt their own nonverbal communication cues when interacting with people from different cultural backgrounds?

Individuals can effectively navigate and adapt their nonverbal communication cues by first educating themselves about the cultural norms and practices of the people they are interacting with. They should observe and mirror the nonverbal cues of the other person to establish rapport and show respect. It is important to be open-minded, flexible, and willing to adjust their own nonverbal behaviors to align with the cultural expectations of the other person. Additionally, seeking feedback and being willing to learn from any misunderstandings can help individuals improve their cross-cultural communication skills.
