Work Meals Should Not Be Neglected In Business Activities

In daily life, people often encounter such a situation: Several well-dressed business people are sitting in a restaurant.

On the table before them, dishes and drinks were not always very rich, but their manners were very serious and serious, and they talked with relish.

If you pay attention to it a little, you will find that at the moment, they really do not drink wine because their interest in conversation seems to be much higher than that of dining.

Some people may wonder if they do not have their own offices, do not eat old meals honestly, and then go to the office to talk about serious matters. Why do they need to do something in a big way and spend two times on their own? I am afraid that people who ask such questions are not very familiar with it. As mentioned above, the gathering of business people in fact is not a routine business activity, but a kind of regular business activity.

Its official name should be called a work dinner.

Working meals are sometimes referred to as "business dinner" or "dinner party" in the business world.

It refers to a business partner who has a business relationship in business dealings for the purpose of contacting, keeping in touch, exchanging information or negotiating business.

Generally speaking, working meals usually have notable characteristics in the following six aspects.

First, it focuses on creating an atmosphere.

Compared with formal banquet,

The emphasis is not on form and grade. Instead, the intention is to create a relaxed, pleasant, harmonious, harmonious atmosphere conducive to further contacts among business people.

Second, it has some practical purpose.

Business people pay attention to pragmatism, so is working dinner.

Compared with the meals between friends and family, working meals are not idle, simply to let everyone touch their heads, talk about their hearts, and get in touch with each other.

In fact, it is a business activity going on in another way. In other words, it is just an informal business talk with a table serving as a conference table or negotiating table.

Third, most of them demand smaller scale.

As far as the number of participants is concerned, working meals are usually more difficult to wipe out than gigantic banquets or meals.

Because of its emphasis on dealing with practical problems, in order to prevent people from speaking hard or to ensure that everyone is free to express their heart and soul, the actual number of working meals is often less.

Generally speaking, working meals are not multilateral gatherings, but mainly based on bilateral gatherings.

It must be a separate appointment between two people, or a few representatives from both sides.

However, the total number of working meals is no more than ten persons.

Unrelated persons, spouses, children and so on are not suitable to be present.

Fourthly, it usually takes place at noon.

Most of the meals are held at night, and often like holidays or weekends.

This is to make participants feel more convenient in time, and also a social convention.

If so, the choice of time for working meals is different.

In order to make reasonable use of time and do not affect the work of participants, working meals are usually arranged on the noon of the working day, taking advantage of the interval between work.

Therefore, it is often called "working lunch" or "luncheon" in Europe and America.

It should be said that arranging the working dinner to be arranged at noon on weekdays will reflect the pragmatic spirit of business people's efficiency.

Fifthly, it can be held anytime and anywhere.

The host does not need to issue a formal invitation to the guest before the meal is served, and the guest does not have to reply to the host in advance.

Generally speaking, only the guests and the host feel that it is necessary to sit together to exchange views on each other, or to negotiate on certain issues, so that everyone can have a working lunch whenever and wherever possible.

Time does not need to be agreed sooner or later.

It can be proposed by one side or by both sides. It can be agreed on a few days in advance or on the same day.

In conclusion, only the parties concerned agree to participate in the work.

Its six, it is from

Let's face it.

Working meals are held in restaurants outside, so their owners have their own special characteristics.

According to convention, no matter where the work meal is held, which party first proposes to have a working meal, which side should be turned up.

When the host party comes to work dinner, the highest administrative officer is the owner who has been dyed.

The secretaries or public relations personnel are mostly nominally high, complicated and busy.
