Your Business Image

 Interaction: Remember the difference when interacting with each of these groups:
 
 • Superiors/bosses/authority figures: Be respectable, but keep your distance.
 • Peers/colleagues/friends: Relax and be yourself.
 • Inferiors/those who work for you: Be aloof and keep your distance. Mind your manners – aloof does not mean arrogant.
 
 Note: You cannot be friends with superiors or inferiors. Do not discuss your personal life with members of these two groups. You should be professional at all times when in the presence of superiors or inferiors.
 
 Manners: No matter what the situation or whom you are interacting with, always be polite and courteous. If you are not current on manners then we suggest going to your nearest library or bookstore and getting a book on the topic. People always remember well-mannered persons. ALWAYS.
