Jin Zhengkun talks about the etiquette of shaking hands:
Generally speaking, women reach out first when men shake hands with women, while elders reach out first when younger generations shake hands with elders, while superiors and subordinates shake hands. Generally, superiors reach out first, and teachers shake hands with students. It is also necessary to pay attention to its occasion and particularity. It is a formal occasion for those with high status to reach out first. For example, if you are a girl, you are now in a low position, you are a public relations manager and I am a man. However, if it is a social occasion, everyone plays together, and does not talk about the position and title, then this girl has a high status. Although she is a girl, she is an adult. Respecting women is a kind of education, and girls should reach out first. In addition, we should pay attention to the particularity of shaking hands besides occasions, such as where is the most important manifestation of particularity? Table now such a situation, is to receive guests at home, the two sides shake hands, I want to emphasize with you, just talked about the high position first hand is * * * sex is the norm, the special case is that the home and the unit receive guests, when the guests arrive, the host reaches out first, and the host reaches out first to show a welcome to the guests. This procedure is indispensable, but if the guests leave, it will be reversed. The etiquette convention is that the guests reach out first when they leave.
Please remember the order of shaking hands. The first order is from respect to inferiority. If the people present are from a unit or a family, it is easy to distinguish the level of status. If they are not from a unit, they will be from respect to inferiority, starting from the person with high status and going down in turn.
The second way is to go from near to far. When there are many people, I should reach out and shake hands with my nearest person, and then shake them down in turn.
If a man and a woman are together at the same time, shake hands with this woman first, regardless of the position, which is to respect women's etiquette.
