The Etiquette Edge gives you a crash course on modern business manners.

From interviewing etiquette and dress codes to working in close quarters and communicating upward, you'll master the essentials of making a great impression and building relationships, including how to: Be smart about how--and when--you use your smartphone; Handle difficult conversations with tact and finesse; Check texts and emails for content and tone; Create a polished image on social media; Conduct meetings (in person, online, or over lunch) with poise and confidence, and more.

Inconsiderate people and poor conduct may permeate the workplace, but success comes to those who play by a better set of rules. -- Provided by publisher.
