What is Business Etiquette?
“Business etiquette is the behavior and manners
considered appropriate in the business and professional
world”(p. XI)
(Chaney, & Martin, 2007)
Practicing Good
Business
Etiquette
“Good etiquette can prove to be good business and yield the
results desired” (Andrica, 1999).

following guidelines of behavior….
(Chaney, & Martin, 2007).

attire and a smile!
(Andrica, 1999)

Lacking Business Etiquette?
“Business men
with no
intercultural
competence
cannot hope for
great success in
the sphere of
international
business.”
(Hamburg, 2012).
Those in Management/Leadership Positions…
“Managers spend a majority of their time
in verbal activity”
Must learn to linguistically flex one’s muscle
Must indicate command by employing
smoothness of language
Being assertive and sharp
But cannot afford to be terse all the time
(David A. MorandJ, 2014)
The Bottom
Line
IF YOU WANT TO
BE SUCCESSFUL
YOU MAY WANT
TO IMPROVE ON
YOUR BUSINESS
ETIQUETTE!
Also, if you encounter someone who
needs to brush up on their business
etiquette be sure to make a complaint to
someone who can make a difference.
(Langford, 2005
