Full Description

The need for etiquette has not disappeared just because we live and do
business differently from the way we did 1,000 years ago. In fact, knowing
how to treat other people well is more important now than ever. In the past
40 years, fundamental changes have occurred in the makeup of the workforce
and the way people do business, and some of the rules have changed forever.
By examining how good manners apply to the work world, you benefit yourself
and everyone around you. After all, who you are shows in how you
behave and in how you appear to others. How you look, talk, walk, sit, stand,
and eat — in other words, how you present yourself — speaks volumes about
who you are and creates the impression you give other people, not only in
your personal life, but in your professional life as well.
Proper etiquette is now understood to be vital to career and professional
growth, and it is important to personal growth as well. Integrating civility into
your behavior allows you to stop worrying about what to do in complex social
and business situations. When good manners become part of who you are,
they provide a foundation that you can take for granted when you encounter
stress and anxiety. More than that, etiquette helps you recognize the importance of other people and the ways in which you can be a presence without being a burden.
The world has changed dramatically during the past few years; cross-cultural
awareness is crucial, and social and business niceties aren’t nearly as pervasive or clearly defined as they used to be. Knowing how to behave courteously and professionally is far from trivial. Etiquette and protocol really do count in the business world. No matter how brilliant an employee may be,
any lack of social grace will make a bad first impression on clients and business associates.
