Recently I was at a meeting, virtual of course, and I commented on how great one attendee looked. Actually, I said, \u201cYou look smart, are you going for a job interview?\u201d He said, \u201cEvery day is an interview day\u201d and everyone smiled. Later I was thinking about his comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know that when I go to any meeting I am representing my company and, more importantly, people I meet must feel able to refer me to their contacts. So I dress as if I am going to be introduced to someone who invites me to address their board in London. I dress smartly, always, and this applies whether I am meeting people face to face or virtually, because\u2026 did I mention I am representing my company?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is tempting to relax when attending a meeting. We\u2019re at home, possibly not long from our beds, and we\u2019ve not had any of that bothersome travel. Coffee from our kitchen, with a bit of tidying done while we wait for the kettle to boil. But, did I mention that I am representing my company?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I approach a virtual meeting the same way I do a face to face meeting, because I am being interviewed\u2014interviewed by people who will be judging whether their reputation is going to be harmed by introducing me to their contacts. Therefore I dress smartly, I comb my hair, I put on my makeup, I prepare myself and behave appropriately during the meeting because every day is an interview day<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What do you think?<\/p>\n\n\n\n As always if you want 20 free networking hints and tips, go to ebn.uk.com and download away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have fun,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Glenys<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently I was at a meeting, virtual of course, and I commented on how great one attendee looked.
