Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      So Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Business Etiquette Week:

“Can you hear me now?” When it comes to the use of cell phones in everyday society, we not only hear you now, we hear everyone else too—nearly everywhere we go. Step away from a shared workspace to conduct your business, so as to show respect for your co-workers, especially during a meeting.

No one likes to think that someone is wasting their time, especially when there are deadlines to meet. So arrive on time for your meetings.

Everyone should practice good manners. Common bad manners at work include things like loud ringtones, talking and chewing, and not cleaning up after yourself.

Especially, if you are doing business internationally, do your research. Do you bow, kiss or shake hands with a guest from another culture? Research will help create respect and eliminate cultural faux pas.
