Receptions/Social Hour /Networking
What is the purpose of a business reception? Mingling/ making contacts Part of an interview process Employee entertaining clients
When you enter, observe the layout of the room
If no tables, you should have your food or your drink in your hand – never both.
If you have a drink, hold it in your left hand
If you have food, hold it in your right hand and eat with your left
If tables – you can have food and drink together – be ready to stand and greet people
Always greet/introduce yourself to the host/hostess
Connect with as many guests as possible - focus eye contact on that individual and after a time politely excuse yourself to move on to someone else
