Greetings
When passing people in hallways or
arriving at work in the morning it is customary to say hello or good morning
and make eye contact. The same applies to leaving at the end of the day.
Personal
Names/Forms of Address
It is common to address co-workers and
business associates by first name, even when talking to a manager or
supervisor. However, when introducing someone, use both their first and last
names.
Speaking
Up and Asking Questions
Contributing your own ideas or thoughts
indicates that you are interested and want to be involved. However, do not
interrupt the conversation but wait for your turn to speak.
Asking questions of colleagues and
immediate supervisors is one of the best ways you can show your desire to learn
and develop professionally.
