主題: 職場系列 –公司年度派對禮儀 The Dos and Don’ts of Christmas Office Party Etiquette
1. Do: Dress Appropriately 著裝得體
If you need help deciding what to wear to your company Christmas party, check in with your colleagues first to find out the dress code. You'll most likely receive an email from the HR department with all the details. Maybe the CEO wants everyone to wear ugly sweaters, so naturally, you would want to wear your ugliest sweater.
2.Don't: Eat or Drink Excessively 暴飲暴食
If you're tempted to overindulge in the free open bar, hors d'oeuvres, and buffet at your office holiday party, we strongly advise against it. Knocking back too many free-flowing cocktails or having your cup in the punch bowl all night equals a lot of trouble.
3. Do: Work the Room and Network 盡量與屋內的人互動聯誼
Your Christmas office party is an excellent opportunity to mingle with people you may otherwise never see in the office, so use your time wisely. Before you show up to the event, practice your elevator pitch because you never know who you could bump into.
4. Don't: Talk About Sensitive or Inappropriate Subjects 不討論敏感話題
When networking at your Christmas office party, there are certain subjects you should stay away from at all costs. Firstly, avoid controversial topics such as religion, politics, and off-color jokes. Secondly, don't complain or whine about anything.
5.Do: Time Your Entrance and Exit 計算你的入場與離場
Unless you're one of the organizers, we suggest you don't show up to your Christmas office party early or perfectly on time. Even if the event is at the office, take a break after work, freshen up, and come back. Arriving 15 to 30 minutes after it begins is totally acceptable.
6. Do: Say Your Goodbyes 與大家道謝說再見
It may seem suspicious if you sneak out of your Christmas office party without saying goodbye to your colleagues and new connections. While you won't have time to say goodbye to everyone, especially if it's a company-wide event, do your best to weave your way through the crowd and acknowledge the people you feel most comfortable with.
