Some of the best lessons we ever learn, we learn from our mistakes and failures. The error of the past is the success of the future. Tyron Edwards, 1861-1941 Organization Tip: Question: Our organization will be receiving an award at a national conference and it will be shown on large screens. Recommended attire is business casual. What do you suggest that the men and women receiving the award wear during the ceremony? Answer: In conservative environments for the men I recommend a navy blue blazer, a light colored dress shirt and dress slacks. A tie, these days is optional. Women will look best wearing solid separates. They can choose either a dress or slacks. Tip For Men: Question: When greeting women is it acceptable while shaking her hand to touch her shoulder or back at the same time? Answer: The only touching involved should be in the shaking of her hand. Tip For Women: Question: I am attending a conference and the dress is business casual. Should I bring a jacket? Answer: It is always good to pack a jacket, especially if this is the first time you have attended this event. You can always add a bit of professional polish to a casual outfit by wearing a jacket. The Art of Business and Social Interaction® Question: I'm sitting in an audience during a presentation when the person next to me tries to start a conversation. How do I handle it without appearing to be rude? Answer: When the person begins to talk, put your pointer finger to your lips, signaling that you are listening to the speaker.	`
