Nowadays, the 21st century, uncivilized violence isn’t the way to dominate the world or other human beings. We aren’t barbarians but we are some civilized people. In order to gain others respect, we should not only have a tidy image but we should also follow some important social etiquette, which are surely useful and valuable.
Etiquette is not just for dinner parties or impressing your future in-laws. It can be used in a lot of different area including greeting, gift giving or even negotiating. It is heard that “Do in Rome as Rome does.” Different country would have different local etiquette. On arrival in a new place, we have to learn about their local customs. It may even more emphasize in the Chinese society because of its long historical and cultural deposit. There are some special manners for the Chinese. Do not call anyone by his first name, unless you are on familiar terms, like close friend. It will be treated as impolite action. If you are invited for any kind of visiting, small gifts like wine, tea, cigarettes or candies are kindly welcomed.
Besides, following some good etiquette can also give a great help when we are having some business greeting. Good business etiquette can directly affect the way people perceive us and influence whether or not they want to give you their business. It is of crucial importance to build kind relationship with the one that you may employ to act as intermediaries. No one will hate emblazonment. So, don’t be shy to praise people.
Last but not least, cultivate good business manners is clearly not a difficult thing for we to attempt. If we follow these, it is believed that we can achieve success more smoothly and easily.
