Lesson 1

Rules of conduct in society

1. Write new words:

2. Read and translate the text “Good manners don’t cost a thing”.

In today’s fast-paced world, it is easy to forget some of the common courtesies that should be basic and non-negotiable. Unfortunately, many people appear to have forgotten the manners that were taught to them by their parents and grandparents and sadly, others do not appear to have ever been taught any manners at all.

Basic politeness. Showing politeness is not difficult. It is simple to say “please”, “thank you”, “you are welcome” and “excuse me”. These phrases show that a person is considerate of others. Even if someone is rude and your favourite person, it is better to be polite to them rather than sinking to their level. Do respect your coworker’s space. Offices, even if they are cubicles or open desks, should be respected as belonging to the “owner”.

Hold that door. This is a rule that goes not just apply to men anymore. Yes, men should still hold the door for ladies and allow them to enter or exit first, but ladies are not exempt from holding the door for their elders or someone who might have their hands full.

Be on time. There is nothing worse than to be kept waiting, and if you are the party who is late, it is just rude. If you tend to always run late, set your clocks ahead 10 or 15 minutes so that you will arrive on time.

Do not groom yourself on public. If you have something that needs scratching, combing or any other form of grooming, please do not do it in mixed company. Take your personal needs to the restroom or wait until you get home. Ladies, it is okay to quickly apply a little lipstick without using a mirror. It is not, however, okay to pull out a compact and a suitcase full of cosmetics and start redoing your face.

Keep gum chewing to a minimum. If you must chew gum for a legitimate reason such as having a bad breath or dry mouth, try to do it in your car. If it is absolutely necessary to chew a gum in a public place, please do not smack it or blow bubbles with it.

Turn the ringer off. When entering any public establishment, the first thing you should do is set your cell phone to vibrate. Remember you do not have to answer every call that voice mail is for. If you know that it is a call of importance, excuse yourself and move to the lobby or another room to take the call. Keep the call time short and let your caller know that you will return their call at your earliest convenience.

Keep the conversation polite. When engaging in conversation, whether it is at work or in a more social setting, never discuss money, religion or politics. These subjects are a powder keg waiting to explode. Simply put, good manners are a sign that you have consideration for others and good breeding.

Lesson 3

Business Skills of Specialists

№1. Read and translate the text:

Your success at work depends as much on strong relationships as it does on job skills. Even if you’re socially very outgoing, you'll be more successful if you think as much about the needs of others as you do your own. The single most important key to successful relationship building is to focus on other people's needs. Making an effort to get to know people simply doesn’t go far enough if your approach is too self-oriented.

Put people at ease by being relaxed, telling entertaining stories, being open about yourself, admitting mistakes, thus showing appropriate humility, and spending time with people.

Active listening means more than just paying attention. It includes asking for elaboration by saying such things as "I see, tell me more." "And then what happened?" "How did that make you feel?" "What do you hope to get out of that?" Even just saying "I understand" and waiting to hear more counts as active listening.

Sensitivity to people's feelings. Even if you aren't naturally perceptive, not very quick to notice how people are feeling, you can take the time to ask periodically, especially during stressful times and when it is possible that something might have upset someone.

Trust means delivering on promises, being honest, not talking behind people's backs or badmouthing them. If you speak positively about others, as long as you are genuine and not articifial, people will assume that you don't likely say bad things about them.

Share information. This doesn't mean cc'ing everybody you know on every email you send. It's much more personal if, having discovered people's interests, you share information with them that is related to their interests.

Help others. Be quick to volunteer to help people, remembering the need to be strategic. You can't do everyone else's job for them. This is like collecting IOU's, keeping in mind that you can't always expect people to do as much for you as you do for them.

Diplomatic assertiveness. Assert yourself diplomatically. Make suggestions in a sensitive manner, using questions if possible, like: "How would this work for you?"

Regular communication. With your most important relationships, that is your boss and key stakeholders within your team or across the organization, try to set up regular times to exchange information and ideas.

Conflict resolution. Resolve conflict promptly and in a collaborative, win-win manner before relationships degenerate.

Networking. Ask your contacts to introduce you to other key players in the organization or industry. Build relationships with them selectively.

Get feedback. Devise some method to get feedback on how people perceive you and their relationships with you. A one-page anonymous questionnaire is useful and not too time-consuming. You are like a business that needs feedback from your customers to be successful.
