Business Etiquette Networking Top Tips

TopResume – Business Etiquette Networking Top Tips – for networking during the job search

our handshake is very important, be the first to extend your hand, it shows you are leading the way. Look the recipient in the eye and give a firm handshake. Both are signs of good character and will make a great first impression.

Always look people in the eye, when you first meet and during your conversation. Don’t look over their shoulder at someone else and engage in conversation.

Listen. At networking events, or meeting new clients, listen more than you talk. Always ask questions, engage and really listen to what people have to say. Pick up ques and remember details that you can mention again in the conversation, such as names, where they work or how many children they have. This shows you are genuinely interested.

Give out and ask for business cards. Then after the event, drop your new contact an email to say it was nice to meet them and if they ever need anything to contact you. Add every contact you meet to your database, you never know when you might need it.

At a networking lunch or business meeting in a restaurant, remember your table manners. Work from the outside in with cutlery. Don’t drink too much, or at lunch stick to water, or soft drinks. When you’ve finished your meal, place your knife and fork together in the centre of the plate. Never cross them, crossed knives are bad luck and an insult in some countries.

When at a networking event or in company and you have to take a call, keep it short and sweet. No one wants to listen to your loud 20minute conversation. In fact, Put the phone DOWN! Let it go to voicemail. It is always rude to pay more attention to your phone, than a real person.

Old fashion politeness is simple, ‘please’ ‘thank you’ and ‘hello, nice to meet you,’ go a long way.

Punctuality. Always be on time for a meeting, or for a networking event. It shows you value that person, company.

If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Don’t talk badly of others, in your industry or through your contacts. It will only cast you in a bad light and associate you with negativity.

Watch your social media. Prospective employers are very likely to ‘google you’ and if all they find is pictures of you drunk and acting inappropriately, it is not going to look good. Set all your social media accounts to private, but create a professional LinkedIn account and professional Facebook page for work only. Never say something on the internet (social media, blogs or comments) that you wouldn’t say to someone’s face. It is there forever!

Watch your mouth. Never, ever curse in the workplace, at a networking function or definitely not in a job interview.

Have you heard the saying ‘A gentleman is his word’? A real gentleman, keeps his word, whether in business, in a relationship, or with friends. If you say you are going to do something, do it. If you make a verbal business agreement, stick to it. Don’t back out of an agreement because it is not ‘on paper’.

Banish the Awkward handshake

Your tube clips of bad awkward handshakes examples:
Trump

Obama

Donald Trump’s handshake has achieved some major column inches recently and not in a good way. His shake, squeeze and tug in method is a sure psychological way of asserting dominance. In business and in your day to day, your handshake gives the first impression of you and who you are. Here are my top tips on how to avoid the awkward handshake.

Firstly, be the first to extend your hand, it shows you are leading the way. Look the recipient in the eye and hold out your right hand, do not have your palm facing either up or down and smile. Take the other person’s hand in a firm but not vice like grip, you don’t want it to be too weak or to firm. Make sure the web between your thumb and fingers meets the web of the other persons, as this will avoid the limp, half-hearted handshake. Try to maintain equal distance between you and the other person and keep your hand perpendicular to the ground. Don’t roll the handshake or in Trumps case pull the recipient towards you. Shake up and down no more than two or three times. Don’t hold on for too long, a normal handshake should last about 5 seconds before it will seem awkward. Good Luck, the ‘manners maketh the man!’

Business Etiquette Tips

Business Etiquette Tips for creating the prefect first impression

 

Networking in business can make many quake in their boots. But some of the biggest deals in the world have been formed over a networking lunch. Confidence is the key to networking and here are my top tips to help you navigate business networking etiquette.

Never underestimate the power of the first impression. Dress impeccably, first impressions really do count and there is truth in the old saying ‘Dress for the job you want, not the job you have’. Your clothing and how you present yourself makes a huge statement about who you are, and where you want to go. Personal style can play a big part in career progression.

Your handshake is very important, be the first to extend your hand, it shows you are leading the way. Look the recipient in the eye and give a firm handshake. Introduce yourself to people with your full name and company and ask theirs. Keep eye contact, when you first meet and during your conversation. These are signs of good character and will make a great first impression.

Listen. At networking events, or meeting new clients, listen more than you talk. Always ask questions, engage and take in what people have to say. Pick up ques and remember details that you can mention again in the conversation, such as names, where they work or how many children they have. This shows you are genuinely interested.

Even though it can be daunting, work the room. Make sure you mingle and talk to people you don’t know. Don’t be afraid to join in on an already formed group. Networking events are created for that purpose, so use it to their full advantage, you never know who you may meet. Start conversations, ask people what company they are from, what are they hoping to get out of today’s event, ask them about their business.

Hand out and ask for business cards. Then after the event, drop your new contact an email to say it was nice to meet them and if they ever need anything to contact you, or suggest meeting for a coffee. Add every contact you meet to your database, you never know when you might need it.

At a networking lunch or business meeting in a restaurant, remember your table manners. Work from the outside in with cutlery. Don’t drink too much, or at lunch stick to water, or soft drinks. When you’ve finished your meal, place your knife and fork together in the centre of the plate. Never cross them, crossed knives are bad luck and an insult in some countries.

When at a networking event or in company and you have to take a call, keep it short and sweet. No one wants to listen to your loud 20minute conversation. In fact, Put the phone DOWN! Let it go to voicemail. It is always rude to pay more attention to your phone, than a real person.
