“Good manners will open doors that the best education cannot.” - Clarence Thomas This short and handy book gives readers the basics of good behavior in their work environments, places that might seem fraught with feasible faux pas and poised for potential peril. Thankfully, common courtesy will take you a long way, and the rest is just a matter of learning proper conduct, which this book covers, plus a whole lot more! This Book Will Teach You Business Etiquette is perfect for those about to embark on new jobs after graduating college, or for those making a career shift after being at a previous job, especially from a very different kind of work environment. You’ll learn to navigate the sometimes tricky world of office politics and culture, the dos and don’ts of interacting with all kinds of people and situations, and what you need to survive and thrive in sometimes confusing situations. While the focus is on the “classic” concept of a workplace: the office, the dress code, the hierarchies, the 40-hour week, etc., you can apply this advice to any number of different work environments, because at its heart, business etiquette is all about courtesy, respect, professionalism, and just getting along well with others, qualities that every job values, and that are just as important in your non-working life. Entering a new workplace and figuring out how to behave can seem overwhelming and even a bit frightening if you’ve been a student up until now, or if your work experience has been in a field other than the standard office setting. Fear not! This Book Will Teach You Business Etiquette will help ease your concerns and ensure that you not only make the best impression at your new job, but are also open to experiences that are enriching, rewarding, good for your career, and maybe even fun!
