- Do you think manners and attitude are related? If so, how?
It seems to be that we have a consensus that attitude and manners are at least related to one another, if not a direct correlation (specific relationship).
A1) Yes, attitude comes first, you resolve to be a decent person and the manners follow #socialcafe— Con Sweeney (@conpsweeney) May 16, 2018 | A1 A good attitude may help people to be nicer ;) #SocialCafe— Abigail Rushmore (@AbigailRushmore) May 16, 2018 |
- Do manners affect attitudes or attitudes affect manners or both?
As Con says, we are getting a bit philosophical and assessing the value and influence of manners. :)
A2 Both. Good manners can help someone to feel good about themselves and put a spring in their step and likely improve an attitude, as well as mood... #SocialCafe— Deborah (@socialwebcafe) May 16, 2018 | A2) Now we're getting really #philosophical ! Attitudes are #apriori ! #socialcafe— Con Sweeney (@conpsweeney) May 16, 2018 |
- How can we improve on how we portray our businesses, as it relates to manners?
We have identified that it is good to be aware of the influence and also to keep it simple, whenever possible.
You definitely have a way of making it bite-sized and easy to handle ;) . #SocialCafe— Deborah (@socialwebcafe) May 16, 2018 | A3 Be cognizant of the effect. Possibly track it, to demonstrate the effect. #SocialCafe— Deborah Anderson (@techauditcom) May 16, 2018 |
- Does the behavior of individuals in the business affect the view of the business and its reputation?
We have also reached a consensus that the presentation of the business is impacted by the manners (or lack thereof) of those who represent it.
A4 It affects my view of the business! #SocialCafe— Abigail Rushmore (@AbigailRushmore) May 16, 2018 | A4) Without question! #socialcafe— Con Sweeney (@conpsweeney) May 16, 2018 |
- Should team members care about manners or do you think that is for owners to worry about in business?
It seems that we think that caring about the effects on the business might matter. :)
A5 They should probably care if they want to earn revenue. #SocialCafe— B2CTweet (@b2ctweet) May 16, 2018 | A5 One would hope they care :) #SocialCafe— Abigail Rushmore (@AbigailRushmore) May 16, 2018 |
- Should owners of small businesses get involved in how team members portray their company or is it none of their business?
Whether or not business owners do care, it might not be a bad idea for them to consider areas for improvement.
A6 Owners should kindly encourage employees (and sub-contractors) in reasons why they should care... genuinely. #SocialCafe— Deborah Anderson (@techauditcom) May 16, 2018 | A6 If they care about recurring income then yes they should care. #SocialCafe— B2CTweet (@b2ctweet) May 16, 2018 |
- Do you think that education in manners is necessary, helpful, or completely unnecessary in most businesses?
There are plenty of training resources, even free resources, available to help people to acquire behavior that includes manners, if it doesn’t already come naturally to them.
A7 Training/education is helpful. It is possible that someone already has good manners, but a great idea to offer training to employees. #SocialCafe— Deborah (@socialwebcafe) May 16, 2018 | A7 Education is helpful... maybe needed in some cases... #SocialCafe— Deborah Anderson (@techauditcom) May 16, 2018 |
- What are you going to do differently, if anything, this next week?
So, what tasks can we come up with for this next week? Oh, wait, we asked that already. It would seem that anything that includes continuous process improvement may be worth considering for merit.
A8 I’m going to ponder on (and maybe write about) this. #SocialCafe— Abigail Rushmore (@AbigailRushmore) May 16, 2018 | A8 I’m going to evaluate possibilities for improvement within the business. #SocialCafe— Deborah Anderson (@techauditcom) May 16, 2018 |
