social strategies for success
Corporate etiquette is a requirement for success in the current business climate. As you negotiate your way to the top, you will be judged not only on your production record but on your confidence and poise in dealing with those around you. Own the introduction, know the hierarchy of introductions, use the proper honorific, give a memorable handshake, follow the rules of professional emails, distribute business cards judiciously, and never forget to send the all important thank you note.
professional dress
No matter how successful a person may be, if a businessman or woman shows up dressed inappropriately, it can stall his/her career forever. The way you dress sends a very powerful message. Be certain the message you send is favorable. When you dress professionally it says that you are someone who wants to be taken seriously and this equates with success. In this course, an overview of the business wardrobe and how it affects performance, perception and presentation will be discussed. The participants will learn how to strike a balance between their own “personal look” and the requirements of the corporate culture they work within. In the end they will know what to wear, what not to wear and how and when to wear it.
