Good manners project an image of professionalism, strengthening your reputation and improving your chances for career success.

To get started we first have to get everyone on the same page. Everyone has to be able to understand and respect the objectives. We work with your team to set expectations.

Basic Business Etiquette Objectives:

  • Agree upon shared expectations

  • Pay attention to each other / support each other

    • Mind your words / your language:

      • Don’t swear:

        • Start a swear jar

      • Be positive not negative:

        • “What if we tried this way?” versus “That won’t work!”

      • Please and Thank you’s

  • Pay attention to your surroundings:

    • Opportunities to help

    • Danger

    • Your voice (is it loud)

    • Food smells

    • Music

  • Help out if you can:

    • Carry something 

    • Hold a door open

  • Mind your actions:

    • Be a role-model

    • Be on-time

    • Tell everyone when they’ve done a good job

    • Discourage gossip

    • Discourage sarcasm

    • Encourage humour

    • Discourage humour at someone else’s expense

    • Apologize… quickly… when (not if), you make a mistake with your work – or etiquette
