Public relations banquet etiquette and car seat arrangement

Etiquette norms in ranking arrangement As public relations personnel, they often arrange various rankings. This problem is a bit complicated and tricky. What are the etiquette norms for ranking arrangement? I will make a more detailed introduction below.

Rank arrangement of public relations banquet etiquette

Hierarchical arrangement, sometimes called hierarchical arrangement. Specifically, it involves the issue of ranking. This problem actually exists in all aspects of daily life and work. Not only for meetings, but also in many cases. Please sit down, sit down, sit down, this is the basic courtesy of China people. Most of us are familiar with this seat, please sit down, please take a seat, but many people don't know which seat to sit in. Professor Jin himself has been treated like this many times and was kindly sent to the next seat. Seating is a folk saying, which is called ranking in etiquette. Why is it called ranking? Seating is actually a kind of static, sitting there motionless, but actually it is still dynamic. Have you noticed that it has a moving problem and a guiding order, entering and leaving the elevator, going up and down the stairs, getting up and sitting in the door? In fact, there are not only seating problems in daily work, but also in life. For example, the May Day holiday is just around the corner. Everyone is ready to go out and play in the sleeper. If you sleep on a hard sleeper, you should pay attention to the position of your head when you sleep.

Head-to-head tunnel is actually a more civilized way. If you are older and your feet are open, people will look at you and study whether your soles are flowered or black. It's not pretty. Sometimes you feel uncomfortable. If you say something you shouldn't, you should wear shorts and skirts, and your legs should not be tied with ropes. Go to this side of the aisle and you won't have this trouble. Do you think it's important? In fact, it is very important and selfish, but many people don't know that their heads are facing the window. Many people want to breathe comfortably, just considering their own comfort, sometimes it is unsightly and pollutes their horizons.

For example, toast, toast, a glass of wine. What should we do when we propose a toast? There is a saying: the host's first glass of wine was made with the person on his right. If I were the host, the first glass of wine was suggested by the host because I paid for it. This is routine. If you are a guest, you should be modest. Today is Professor Jin's birthday. Professor Jin, thank you. If you are a student, after Professor Jin thanked you, you can say, I wish our teacher a long and healthy life. If you don't, I'll get up and drink. Who paid for it? It's a little early for you to borrow flowers to offer Buddha. If my host wants to make a toast, the first drink will be with the person on my right, and the host's right is usually the guest of honor. This is the standard practice of banquet etiquette. Besides, what about the second glass of wine? The second cup is like this: clockwise, that is, the one on the left, follow the direction of the watch hand. International practice: clockwise is an auspicious direction, which means that time is ahead, and we are all advancing, advancing with the times and developing. Counterclockwise means unlucky. Courtesy is out of vulgarity. This counterclockwise direction is only accepted in one case, that is, athletes enter the stadium. In fact, the entrance of the sports meeting is counterclockwise, which is the tradition of the ancient Olympic Games. By convention, or go clockwise.

Public relations banquet etiquette car seat

First, socialize. For example, I am an important customer. Today is the weekend. You accompany me to see the scenic spots. We went directly to the botanical garden to see flowers, or went to Xiangshan, the Summer Palace, or the Badaling Great Wall. The master drives himself, and you drive your own car. When the owner drives, the front seat is the passenger seat. I sat there as an equal. I can't do it in the back. Sitting in the back is equivalent to announcing that I am on the phone. You are a living driver and my driver. But there is a situation where I have to sit in the back, that is, you have to drive, your husband or wife is in the car, and you two are equal. Then I won't come over. I'll be right there. I am a light bulb. Have you noticed that it is interesting for westerners to spend weekends? Usually the whole family drives away on weekends. The man is driving, his wife is sitting next to him, and the children and dogs are sitting behind him. That's their family photo.

Second, official reception. For example, if your company receives customers, or Professor Jin and I go to your place to give lectures, the cars that come are usually company cars and belong to full-time drivers. When a full-time driver drives, the seat is the diagonal of the driver's back row. The vehicle standard in China belongs to American standard, with the steering wheel on the left and the upper seat on the right. Britain and Japan are the so-called imperial system, with the steering wheel on the right and the upper seat on the left. Why? First of all, the back row is safer than the front row. Anyone with driving experience knows that if there is a car accident, sitting in the passenger seat is generally easy to die first. To put it bluntly, if my wife didn't drive, I wouldn't sit in the passenger seat even if I was killed. When full-time drivers drive, the passenger seat is called the suite seat, where I sit as an interpreter, bodyguard, guard, office director and public relations. To put it bluntly, it is the person who sits with the guests. Then someone said, why don't you sit behind the driver? This is related to traffic rules. In China, vehicles drive on the right, so I take the diagonal line of the driver's back row, which is actually the right seat in the back row, understand? It's convenient for me to get on and off. Have you noticed? Go to a star hotel. After the car stopped at the door, I sat in the back right seat and stretched my legs to get on and off, which was very convenient. If you sit in the seat on the left, no one will notice you. The waiter came to open the door and only opened the door of the right seat in the back row. People like me told him that the seat was a VIP. You sit in the seat on the left, and no one takes care of you.

Third, the location of VIP. It's for VIPs, and senior officials, generals and important businessmen like to sit there. This seat is behind the driver. It has two advantages. First, confidentiality is relatively strong. More secretive. Why? In case the vehicle meets a red light, I sit in the back row and the roadside people see me; I sit on the left in the back row, and others can't see me. Second, safety. If there is a car accident, the probability of death in that position is relatively low.

When it comes to seating in public relations activities, there are two major problems besides attention. The first problem is to understand the general law of seating arrangement. Second, we should master the specific requirements of seating arrangement. We should pay attention to these two problems: one is the rule, and the other is the skill.

First of all, public relations personnel must master the basic rules of seating arrangement. What are the rules for seating arrangement?

First, there is a difference between inside and outside. Its specific meaning is that seating arrangement is suitable for formal public relations activities, foreign exchanges and formal occasions, but not necessary for internal exchanges. In short, we should pay attention to the seating arrangement is external, not internal.

Second, there are differences between China and foreign countries. In fact, this seating arrangement is quite different from some practices of China people and foreigners. For example, people in China sit side by side with their left side up. In the program we did in China, China sat side by side, especially on the rostrum, paying attention to the left high and the right low. This is the custom of China people. But international practice is just the opposite. International practice is to the right. Have you noticed? If I were the governor, the foreign guests I received would be on my right. What I am talking about here is the left and right between the parties themselves. This is a question of positioning standards.

Third, there are differences inside and outside. A hundred miles is stuffy, and there are different customs in a hundred miles. Don't think that foreigners are all the same, and different countries and nationalities have different opinions on their seating arrangements. As I said just now, it is an international practice to put right before wrong. Do you remember when we talked about the convention? The convention is universal. But its adoption does not rule out the existence of many exceptions.

Fourth, the occasion is different. It must be noted that different occasions have different expressions and different situations have different expressions. Never change with constancy. For example, when going upstairs and downstairs, people with high status usually walk in front and give their seats in front to guests to show respect, with the front row as the top. But the premise of letting the guests go ahead is that the guests know the way, isn't it appropriate not to know the way? Besides, if you are a lady and I am a gentleman, we will go up the stairs. If you wear a skirt, it's usually my turn to be in front, and you have to walk behind. Because everyone is used to looking up when they go upstairs. Maybe people should call me bedroom.

When talking about rules, we should also understand that some established rules must be kept in mind. The most important rule of seating arrangement is actually the following five sentences.

In the first sentence, others are the best. That is, the position facing the main entrance of the room is the upper seat.

The second sentence, the middle is the best. If it is divided into the center and two sides, the center is higher than the two sides.

The third sentence, the front row is the top. If you walk side by side, the middle is high; If you walk alone, the front row is high, so get on the front row.

In the fourth sentence, put right first. If we divide right from left, the international practice is to take right as the top. Public relations etiquette adopts international practice, so it is also right.

The fifth sentence is far above everything else. If there is a distance from the door, the farther away from the door, the higher the position, and the closer to the door, the lower the position.
