The 6 Most Easily Neglected Workplace Etiquette

Q: can you tell people that they need to strengthen their work etiquette? Recently, I walked into an office where many attendant wore a pair of jeans and called me a "buddy". When I was waiting for my appointment, I was told to hang up.

A: if I hear a complaint from business people far more than anything else, it's a unpopular workplace rude behavior heard in these days.

But strengthening office or shop etiquette is not only doing the right thing, but smart business practices.

Uncivilized behavior may lose your business.

If this is a fact,

Etiquette is only used as a commonly accepted social norm. However, if you do not use them, you send a signal that this carelessness is the characteristic of your enterprise, but this may not be the message you want to send, especially in this economic environment.

The most common and easiest to correct.

The following are what I have seen:

Casual clothes.

Look, no one wears their ties less than me, but the clear boundaries between "business casual" and "casual" (or worse, "careless") seem to be fading.

Work is still a job. It's an old business practice. People will judge you by the clothes you wear.

Smart companies will set some parameters about what is acceptable and what is unacceptable.

A few years ago, for example, it was perceived that its players were dressed too casually, and NBA made a code of clothing.

Although some players complain that these days are very modern, I want to make suggestions because their clothes make them a little more serious.

Lacking basic

Just as Bonnie told the children, "please and thank you are called wonderful words.

"Unless these words are effective.

For me, this is the biggest culprit today.

To my surprise, employees seem to no longer use "please" and "thank you" as part of the standard operation process.

What a mistake!

The use of "please", "thank you" and "impoliteness" is not just a civilization.

It tells everyone, colleagues and customers alike that they are appreciated.

People like the feeling of being appreciated.

Kitchen slacker: you know yourself very well.

You are the guy who scatters his soup in the microwave but doesn't clean up the mess.

You never wash your dirty dishes.

Other crimes: the guys who are in the fridge at the moldy lunch, finish the last cup of coffee without making a new bucket of girls, and steal from other people's private food.

All is sin!

People who steal their privacy: when people usually work in small rooms or work more and more in completely open space, our privacy is also particularly important.

* knock before entering someone's room without peeping.

* Don't talk loudly on the phone, if it invade other people's space.

* Don't eavesdrop on your neighbor's speech.

Decline of words: how do most businesses connect with each other recently? Yes, e-mail.

Although the days of formal written business letters are happily gone, promoting informal e-mail is not always a good thing.

Using "lowercase" instead of "capital I" is the main culprit, but the fact is, e-mail is often too arbitrary.

Proper address forms are still needed, especially those you do not know.

Late: this randomness has led people to think of such an agenda for those losers, but meetings still need punctuality to start and end.

I know that an enterprise will lock the door 3 minutes after the start of the meeting.

It is harsh but effective.

Sincerely hope that your business will not need a courtesy prison.
