It’s True!
You Don’t Get a Second Chance to Make a First Impression

Does
Matter?
• Corporations spend millions of dollars on advertising & training • First impressions are hard to overcome • Business etiquette rules do differ from those in other settings
• We expose our own weaknesses when we fail to use proper etiquette or treat others with respect 13
Etiquette requires us to admire the human race. ~ Mark Twain 14

First Impressions • Impressions are made in two stages: 1) Automatic & immediate (subconsciously) 2) More thorough and thoughtful (but not always) • Some say the first stage happens in 1/10th of 1 second • It is possible to overcome negative first impressions, but you have to work at it
15

Professionalism at Work • No company resources for personal use • Minimize cell phone usage • Adhere to (& don’t complain about) lab and safety rules • Do not call negative attention to yourself • Engage in good teamwork
• Follow the leader
17
Problem Solving at Work
• If you can not solve it, find someone who can • Provide solutions as you present problems (offer, don’t ask) • Always explain what you can do, not what you can’t
• No excuses…do not place blame

Professional Attire • Don’t let your attire speak louder than your words
• Dressing professionally demonstrates respect • Find out the dress code in advance • Beyond safety…minimize bare skin • Details matter • Strong smells – good or bad – are never good

Greetings • Practice your handshake • Stand, make eye contact, and smile • Use proper introductions (and closings!) • Pay attention to what others are saying
• Ask for a name again if necessary • Learn how to mingle & network; be positive
• Nametags on the right (best handwriting, full name) 21
Telephone Etiquette • Respond to messages within one business day
• Include name and organization or group when answering the telephone • Do not assume caller ID is correct • Introduce yourself first and state your business, even if you are speaking to a ‘gatekeeper’ • Leave full messages (chance of reaching person you are calling is 1 in 6)
22

Cell Phones • Heed voice and ring tone volume • If a call is lost, the person who originated the call calls back • Never use anywhere you would not talk to your neighbor at full volume…for talking, texting, or data • Do not place phones on the table at meetings or meals • Over-usage demonstrates lack of respect, self-control, self-awareness, and social-awareness
23
Always Express Appreciation! Good manners sometimes means simply putting up with other people’s bad manners.

What is your biggest email pet peeve? •
ALL CAPS
•
Incorrect spelling/grammar
•
Long messages/no simple action defined

No/inappropriate subject line

Receiving late night/off hour emails

Email • Every single message has the chance of being forwarded, intentionally or unintentionally • Utilize spell-check and re-read your messages • Do not use email in place of IM
• Use a subject, greeting, and full message • Keep messages short; use bullets
• Obey message notification requests • Follow employer’s guidelines regarding all social media

Handling a Faux Pas • Remember, you are only human • Not only about what you do, but also about how you react after • An apology can go a long way, but do not overdo it
• People do desire to be fair; repeated small interactions build trust the fastest so be consistent • Do not get so stressed about every little rule that you sacrifice having a good interaction
