Business Etiquette
If you are currently in a job that is hard to get excited
about?
Etiquette Expert/ Business Coach- Susie Wilson
23 September 2015

GOOD MANNERS 1
These 10 tips will help you dig deep and stay motivated
when your job is less than inspiring.
1-Put yourself first. Whether it's before work, during your lunch hour or after work,
get a good exercise in each day. Exercise relieves stress and creates positive feelings of
well-being. It's in your best interest to keep your body healthy and strong.
2-Stimulate your brain. Your morning commute is a good time to listen to an
audiobook, an educational podcast, or download an app to learn a foreign language.
Make a commitment to keep learning and growing personally, as well as professionally.
3-Invest in looking your best. The way you dress and carry yourself affects your self-
image. Go through your wardrobe and donate items that no longer suit your style or taste.
Resolve to only wear things that make you feel confident. Taking the time to look your
best will affect your attitude throughout the day.
4-Minimise irritating distractions. There are so many daily interruptions competing
for our attention - emails, texts, phone calls, noisy coworkers, social media, and online
news. Once diverted, it is often difficult to get back on task. Change your homepage on
your computer so you don't get sidelined by the latest celebrity breakup, vow to only
check emails every 30 minutes, turn off your mobile phone, and limit social media to
lunch and after hours.
5-Focus on your long-term goals. Do frequent check-ins to see how you are growing
as a professional. Determine what are the next steps you can take to move closer to your
ultimate goal.
GOOD MANNERS 2
6-Look for exciting challenges. Let your supervisor know you are interested in
learning more about a particular aspect of the job. Investigate the possibility of your
company paying for training in the area you would like to spin off into. Take advantage of
every opportunity that is offered while you are in your existing position. There may be
ways to turn a ho-hum job into a long-term profession...even if it is at another company.
7-Freshen up your environment. A living plant or a lovely vase of cut flowers is an
instant inspiration boost. Devote a small spot for meaningful mementos - a grouping of
seashells, a trinket from a recent trip - any little knickknack that triggers a happy memory
and motivates you to create and inspire.
8-Engage with experts. Use social media to your advantage by reaching out on
Twitter or following someone you admire on their professional page. Retweet and share
their work. Don't hesitate to engage with them and ask them thoughtful questions. You
will be surprised by how many people will respond.
9- Little details can make a big difference. Look at your writing pen. Does it glide
smoothly across the paper, or does it skip ink and leave marks on your fingers? Instead of
using plain file folders, choose a few in pretty colours and patterns. Attractive supplies
will give you an emotional lift whenever you use them. For more on this topic, visit my
Pinterest Page on A Fabulous Office.
10- Look at the big picture. Take stock of what benefits you are receiving in your
current position. You are establishing contacts and becoming known as a professional,
even if it's in the industry you don't plan to stay in long-term. By staying focused on the
"big picture," you are paving the way for your future professional success.
Let’s start a movement to revive a little gracious living.
Employees may not need a pay raise as much as they do personal thanks from their
manager for a job well done. Show your workers that you support them, and encourage
better performance by motivating them in the following ways:
Personally thank employees for doing a good job — one on one, in writing, or both.
Do it promptly, often, and sincerely.
GOOD MANNERS 3
Be willing to take time to meet with and listen to employees. Give them as much
time as they need or want.
Provide specific feedback about the performance of the employee, the department,
and the organisation.
Strive to create a work environment that is open, trusting, and fun. Encourage new
ideas and initiative.
