Additional Info

A human being is always surrounded by certain societal rules, including those regarding proper communication, and business is no exception. There is a specific business etiquette which regulates our communication with clients as well as between managers and employees, colleagues, in negotiations with partners, and all other forms of communication in the business environment.

Business etiquette is a set of standards and rules which we are expected to follow within the boundaries of professional communication. Nothing can create a negative impression in the eyes of a business partner quite like noncompliance with the core rules of business etiquette and manners.

Accordingly, the demand for business etiquette training and various etiquette training courses continues to remain consistently high in all the countries of the world. So, what exactly do these business etiquette courses and training sessions cover?

  • Time: Both you and your business partners should respect each other’s time. Those who steal others’ time are frowned upon in any country.
  • Appearance: General appearance and dress code are also very important. One’s appearance should not provoke any negative response. In addition, each country has unique cultural characteristics which should be taken into account. This is one of the topics that is paid much attention to in business etiquette trainings in the UAE.
  • Particular attention in corporate etiquette training is given to educated speech. It goes without saying that it should be knowledgeable. Another crucial rule of business etiquette is to show respect to the other party, whoever he or she is.
  • Communication: There are also rules for mediated communication. Telephone conversations should be brief yet informative. In e-mails, it is necessary to specify subject, name, contact details and other important information.
  • Gestures: Certain cultures define specific gestures and manners differently within the world of business etiquette. This topic is also covered in business etiquette courses in Dubai.

The UAE, just as any other Middle Eastern country, has its own particular features and rules of business etiquette – and where, if not in the business center of the Middle East, should one study them? At the Business Etiquette course from the Atton Institute in Dubai, you will gain crucial knowledge and skills in business etiquette which will allow you to achieve great success in your business career.
