You're sitting at an outdoor café and an important client of yours spots you. He comes over and extends his hand in greeting. Do you shake it or do you risk offending him by saying that you're adhering to social distancing rules?
Likewise, you've scheduled a video conference with a prospective customer. You're both working from home. What do you wear? Business casual? Business dress? Shorts and a t-shirt? The rules of business etiquette in the coronavirus era have had to be rewritten, which is just fine with etiquette expert Maryanne Parker, who observes that since the days of Louis XIV of France, what is and isn't appropriate has been an ever-evolving standard. Maryanne, an author and owner of Manor of Manners, joins host and award-winning journalist Dean Rotbart to address a variety of common, modern etiquette dilemmas that business owners face.
Be sure to pick up a copy of Maryanne's latest book, Posh Overnight: The 10 Pillars of Social Etiquette.
