If you’re reading this, you’re probably a young professional. And as a young professional, everyone’s probably got an opinion on what you should be focused on. Your advice queue probably looks something like this: mentor telling you to establish goals, mom telling you to go to grad school and friends telling you to find a boyfriend (or maybe even a husband).
Author and etiquette expert Rosalinda Randall has another nugget of wisdom for you: don’t burp in the boardroom.
Courtesy. Manners. Tact. We rarely acknowledge these oh-so-important elements of character – that is until we’ve made an unforgivable workplace faux-pas. One of the biggest mistakes an emerging professional can make is being oblivious to the rules of business etiquette.
Easy-to-read, humorous and conversational, Randall’s book “Don’t Burp in the Board Room” is a must-read, as it could mean the difference between getting your foot in the door….and having the door slammed in your face. Consider this book your Business Interaction Bible as it provides the best practices for addressing “uncommonly common” scenarios we’ll all inevitably run into at one point or another in our careers. Success is rooted in the basics, and applying lessons from “Don’t Burp in the Boardroom” will help emerging professionals develop the personal brand equity that’s essential to thrive in their career.
