How It Helps Your Business English
The module opens on what business etiquette does for professional success, communication and the impression made on employers, with a note on Indigenous values and the variation between industries. Eight topics follow: professional etiquette, Canadian business culture, dress and appearance, communication skills, conducting yourself, networking, digital etiquette and professional development.
You can work through the eight topics in order or open the one closest to what is in front of you, whether that is a networking event or an online profile. The conclusion gives you five points to check your own presentation against, covering consistency across platforms, first impressions and how an employer reads you. It also invites you to adapt each guideline to your own field and style.
