Mind Your Manners:
Polish Your Business Etiquette For Changing Times
By Sally Bell

Cooperation among business colleagues, clients and customers is tough enough under the best circumstances. But when business manners outright conflict, the result can be bruised feelings, lowered productivity -- and most dire, lost business.

That happens all too frequently these days. Old standards are changing, but there's no firm agreement on what should replace them. Clashes are evident throughout the workplace: casual vs. traditional business dress; my generation vs. your generation; domestic vs. international cultural styles.

What's needed is good business etiquette. Not the stuffy nose-in-the-air sort, but polite standards that help business move more smoothly. So just how does today's businessperson put that best foot forward? Read on, and we'll show you.
