Sorry, but this doesn't address a valid subjective feeling that many people have. Nonverbal communication can certainly be more exciting than verbal for people. But in a workplace setting, it's worth giving that up in order to avoid problems. I think it's better to explicitly acknowledge that is a trade-off for many people than to brush legitimate preferences and feelings aside.
