For many people, the term ‘etiquette’ has somewhat wrongly gained old-fashioned connotations that go back to a time when gentlemen wore hats and ladies kept their hands covered with white gloves.
Nothing could have been further from the facts. Etiquette is just as important today as it was in the nineteenth century – perhaps even more so as we live in a world where technological globalization has seen our everyday interactions cross regional borders and step beyond face-to-face contact.
Respect, kindness and consideration are at the core of modern etiquette, and these values should guide our conduct and actions at all times. Good manners also become second nature if they are taught to us from an early age, so parents need to be mindful of the actions they are modeling.
However, the good news is that it’s never too late to learn good social skills and master the rules of etiquette that will help you maneuver through a job interview, a formal dinner or an international business meeting.
