Common sense of table etiquette in business reception
1. Ordering food
We often make the mistake of "thinking we are good" when we invite guests to dinner, and always think that the food we like is what the guests like, but it is not. In etiquette, the first thing to do is to learn to respect each other and know how to cater to their own interests. Therefore, we should know our guests well and judge their basic tastes. I don't know what the guest likes best, but I must know what the other person doesn't like. On the basis of determining the basic taste, it is not easy to make mistakes by excluding those who don't like to eat.
second, serving
Chinese food is different from western food. When serving, all the dishes will be served very quickly before eating. In this case, many people will put their heads on the table and then move slowly. In fact, there are manners to serve. In business communication, it is better to treat guests to dinner. In hotels, the dining table is generally rotary, so the principle generally adopted is to serve food in a cross, which is convenient for placing on the one hand and taking care of all the guests on the table on the other.
Third, change tables
At a business dinner, many friends don't know the order and direction of changing tables. China's etiquette is to value the right and respect people. As the host, the guest of honor should sit on our right, and the distinguished guests should eat first when eating. Therefore, the principle adopted when turning tables is clockwise, from right to left, so that the guest of honor should eat first, and then others can eat.
Fourth, the way of calling
At dinner, we usually call the waiter by waving or snapping our fingers, which is not in line with business etiquette. Imagine how you would feel if someone greeted you like a puppy, or if you were greeted by a snap of your fingers in a bar, would you still be like a waiter in a big hotel?
Etiquette pays attention to respect. You should think about respecting others in everything, and you will get the respect you deserve. Therefore, the correct way is to straighten your arms and palms, and then wave at the waiter, which looks elegant and decent!
5. Take a break
After you have had enough to eat and drink, you will always continue to have a chat. Be careful, if you don't pay attention at this time, you will be betrayed again. This period of time is the transition period when we are ready to leave, so there will always be some people (especially girls) dressing up in public at this time, and even putting on lipstick in public.
These behaviors are not desirable, it will give the guests a sense of coquetry, and wearing lipstick in public is a sexual temptation abroad, which is not allowed in business etiquette. But in other private dates, it's also your freedom!
6. Pay the bill
Before leaving, as the host, we are used to paying the bill in public, exposing the amount spent on eating to all the guests present. If the amount is less, one of the big boss guests will whisper in his heart, "Hum, it's so cheap to send us away!"
If it costs a lot, another guest will worry again: "This little dish costs so much. How much will it cost if I entertain him next time!" Therefore, it is polite to pick up your carrying bag and go to the front desk outside to check out when friends are chatting. After chatting, everyone will leave directly, which is both decent and crisp! 45 details of table business etiquette 3
Dining with a purpose
Since business western food has a purpose, "eating" takes a back seat in the process of dining, and the most important thing is what information you can learn from the guests or what information you convey to them by yourself.
for example, if you want to discuss business cooperation with each other, dining may become the first hurdle. Guests want to know your speech and behavior through the time of dining together. Most westerners think that the details of dining can reflect a person's many qualities, such as carefulness, emergency ability and so on. In the same way, you may also want to know what kind of person the other person is, whether he is trustworthy and so on through the time of dining together. Business western food is also a platform for mutual communication. As a host, you should take the initiative to guide the conversation with the guests, instead of burying your head in the dining table and just enjoying the delicious food on the plate.
Pay attention to basic table manners
In business western food, you represent not only an individual, but also the image of a company, so your every move is also a representative of the corporate image. Pay special attention to the most basic table manners, and the following points need special attention:
(1) Never put electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets on the table;
(2) You need to talk during the meal, but don't talk when the food in your mouth hasn't been swallowed. It's best to follow the speed and rhythm of the other person's meal;
(3) When you leave your seat for a short time, never put the napkin directly on the dining table, but fold it and put it on the seat;
(4) If the service in the restaurant is slow, you can complain and complain, but don't get angry.
content of discussion
as mentioned above, business western food is a platform for communication, and its more purpose is to enhance mutual understanding, so business western food should not be regarded as an office and a conference room. The content of the discussion is mostly limited to oral communication. Be careful not to take out the contract and plan from the briefcase during the meal and ask the other party to read it. This will seriously affect the guests' dining, and it is often regarded as a bad living habit, and it is very likely that the documents will fall on the food on the table accidentally.
correctly understand the function of business western food, regard it as the beginning and lubricant of business negotiation, and don't rush for success. The final decision should be left in the office and conference room.
who pays for business western food
business western food is usually paid by the inviter. If the guest insists on paying the bill, you should at least have AA with the guest, but in case the guest is very stubborn, you'd better follow the guest and never argue with the guest about paying the bill. Pay attention to ensure that the credit card has sufficient credit limit before eating, or carry enough cash to avoid the situation of no money to pay.
Start from scratch and pay attention to every detail. The etiquette of business western food is a necessary condition for communicating with westerners. To become a serious "gentleman" or "lady", we must constantly reflect and temper.
