Etiquette Quick Tips: By Clise Etiquette

- If you're approached by a coworker requesting a donation for a cause that you don't care about, simply say, "Thanks for thinking of me. I have a few favorite charities that I support and I need to stick to giving to them at this time."
* I hope the 2012 Class Gift will continue to be on your list of favorites! :)

- When visiting someone's office, don't stand if the host is sitting.

- Collect the coat check ticket(s) from your dinner guest(s) and tip the attendant $1.00 per coat.

- Using the email recall function usually does not keep the sender from seeing the email. Make sure it's ready to be sent the first time.

- If you don't know the correct pronunciation of someone's name ask.

- In meetings keep your feet on the floor or crossed at the ankles, otherwise you risk looking disengaged and too casual.

More Etiquette Tips: By Clise Etiquette

- You may eat asparagus and bacon with your fingers as long as they are firm and aren't covered with sauce. How fun is that?!

- Never stack your plates.

- Put your phone away when attending a presentation unless you are tweeting about the presentation.

- Put your name tag below your right shoulder to make it easier to see when shaking hands.

- A podium is something you stand on, whereas a lectern is what you stand behind.

- Avoid showing up to an event before it starts or you may be put to work.

~Enjoy!

To keep the page active. I will post Etiquette tips and motivational content as often as possible.

Etiquette Quick Tips by Clise Etiquette!

-Even if the drinks are free at a business event, stop at two alcoholic beverages. You don't want to be THAT guy or gal.
Don't add people to your newsletter just because they gave you their business card.

-Keep LOL, LMAO, ROTFL, OMG and other texting abbreviations out of emails.

-Never tuck your tie into your shirt or throw it over your shoulder when eating. Just eat carefully.

-When making an email introduction of two people, be sure you state why you are making the introduction.

-When a call drops, the person who placed the call is responsible for calling back.
