During the stressful working hours; tight time, rush target, deadline, leads most of us to forget about “politeness”. It does not because of politeness could destruct the business process, but we just simply forget about it and never count it properly. In fact, being polite helps build up “politeness credits”. Yet, politeness could bring fresh-atmosphere up and melt our ego and arrogance that will even positively support our business practices. Here are smalls “politeness touch” we can practice in the office during business hours:
1. Do greet people.
A simple “hi,” “hello” or “good morning” when you encounter a coworker helps to make the work environment more pleasant.
2. Always use polite words.
Simple words such as “please,” “thank you” and “you’re welcome” are the foundation of good manners.
3. Never use offensive language.
Don’t let curse words creep into your everyday speech.
4. Never play practical jokes.
Remember you’re in an office and not a school yard.
5. Don’t put people down.
A reputation for constant criticism will make business associates wonder what you say about them behind their backs.
6. Help others.
Tomorrow you may need help from someone else.
7. Write thank-you notes.
It’s not enough to just say thank you for lunch, or a gift or a big help, a written acknowledgment does the job much better.
8. Disagree agreeably.
When sharing idea, discussion or any other talks with colleague, you don’t have to agree with everyone, but you should respect their opinions.
