2 Introductions & How to Address People A. Wear your name badge on your RIGHT shoulder so when you shake hands with someone, it is clearly visible B. Introduce the most important person first, using their name first. Mr. Big Client, let me introduce you to my director, Jane Doe City Manager, let me introduce our citizen, Mr. Juan Cortes Coworker, let me introduce you to our new employee Ray Older person, let me introduce you to younger person C. Always use Dr. if applicable. Wait for the other person to instruct you to use their first name before you do so D. Use a firm handshake when greeting someone (male & female) Introduction Blunders What if you forget someone s name: Be honest and say something like, Please tell me your name again. (This happens to everyone.) What if your name is pronounced incorrectly: Gently correct your name while smiling & say It is hard to pronounce, you re not alone; it sounds like Mariah What if your manager forgets to introduce you: Casually introduce yourself: I m sorry, I don t think we ve met before, my name is (First & Last) 5 Tips for Remembering Names 1. Repeat the person s name a few times to yourself after you re introduced. 2. Create a mnemonic. Visualize someone else you know with that name (Mari is like Mariah Carey), a rhyme (Dale works in sales), or alliteration (Joann from Jacksonville). 3. Use the person s name immediately in the conversation after an introduction. 4. Immediately introduce that person to someone you know. 5. Write down the person s name.

8 Etiquette & Professional Dress 6 Occasions for Wearing a Jacket - Source: Image Resource Group 1. When meeting a client for the first time. 2. When giving a presentation. In this situation a jacket says credibility and your audience-no matter if they are men or women- tends to pay more attention to a speaker wearing a jacket. 3. When attending important meetings; it is a matter of physical space. Even when attending meetings in organizations where business casual dress is accepted, if anyone in the meeting is wearing a jacket, keeping your jacket on will keep you at the same level. 4. When being interviewed (internal or external). 5. When you work in an office in which clients or guests drop in unannounced. 6. When you appear in court. Chances are that the key players-- the judge, attorneys and jurors--will be wearing jackets. What Not to Wear to Work in the Summer Every workplace is different and some are a lot more relaxed than others but don't be fooled into thinking that no one will judge your appearance. Be sure you're comfortable with the message your clothes are sending. For women in the workplace: 1. The more skin you show, the less influence you have. 2. Happily, unless you work for a conservative office that specifically calls for them, pantyhose and stockings can be left at home. Bare legs with a knee-length skirt are 21st century work appropriate. 3. Though Michelle Obama has made them work-chic, tank sleeves are still up for debate in many offices, and that goes double for spaghetti straps. 4. Also avoid: sheer fabrics, short skirts, shorts, Spandex, and bare midriffs/backs. 5. Ladies, sunglasses don't double as a headband when it comes to work, so put them away entirely when at the office. For men: 1. While some workplaces might be shorts-appropriate, in the majority of offices nothing says "I don't take my job seriously" more than wearing short. 2. When in doubt, khakis and polo shirts are the way to go. They are both professional and comfortable. Don't forget the belt! 3. Sandals are iffy for men. Be sure your feet look and smell appropriate for business if this kind of casual attire is allowed in your office culture. 4. For men, think twice before wearing loafers without socks. For both: 1. Although the thermometer may be soaring outside, most offices are kept extra cool to compensate. Keep a thin sweater or light weight jacket with you to ward off chills during your morning meeting. 2. Wrinkles can be harder to fight in the humid summer months, but neat and clean still counts. Wrinkled khakis and a stained or faded polo shirt are just as bad as gym shorts and a tee-shirt. 3. Sunglasses are a summer staple, but they are also outdoor wear. You should always be able to make eye contact with colleagues or clients when indoors, so take them off when entering a building. 4. Flip flops are distracting. They make noise and expose your feet. The weather might be sweltering hot, but do you really want your boss raising her eyebrows about your feet? 5. If people focus on your clothes for the wrong reason, you're wearing the wrong clothes. 6. While it's always acceptable to dress "above" your company's requirements, keep it to one notch up to avoid being incongruous with the rest of your colleagues. 7. No dress code? Ask for one. The more specific the dress code, the easier it is to figure out what to wear which will leave you with more time to gaze out the window and day dream about your summer vacation at the beach. As with all dress codes, casual dress can mean different things at different companies. One standard that helps define appropriateness is to ask yourself: "If I were to have an unexpected meeting with a client or the chief executive, could I go dressed in what I have on?"
