Do you really introduce yourself in business communication?

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, an international student said that he had prepared moon cakes for me. It happened that his colleague was working in Chengdu these days, so I asked his colleague to send it to me. I said, "What's your colleague's name?" He replied, "My colleague's surname is Luo." When I met his colleague himself, I asked, "What's your name, please?" He said, "Don't mention your last name." . I have to call him Mr. Luo.

I find that many people don't know how to introduce themselves and others properly in business communication.

In business communication, a person's name is just a code name. Just telling each other your name doesn't mean much to the relationship. We want to know your company, position, business and other information, so that we can address you professionally and choose appropriate communication methods and topics.

For example, the student just now, he can tell me, "My colleague surnamed Luo is the front office manager of our hotel." Then I can directly address each other as "Manager Luo". The same teacher Luo answered my inquiry and said, "Hello, teacher. I'm the manager of the front office of XX Hotel. My name is Luo Shuai. " So I also know how to address each other and what kind of topics to talk about.

What else should we pay attention to when introducing ourselves in business communication?

First of all, the content of self-introduction has a great relationship with the occasion.

In all work-related formal occasions, such as visiting customers, attending industry conferences, business talks, etc. You need to tell each other the name, position and job content of your company when introducing yourself. In this way, the other party can know where they can cooperate with each other. For example, "Hello, I'm Liu Tian, general manager of Hongye Foreign Trade Company. Nice to meet you. "

Secondly, you must be modest when introducing yourself, otherwise it is easy to do bad things. Some bosses will say "Hello, I'm General Manager Liu of Hongye Foreign Trade Company" when introducing themselves. People will think, you are a great boss. Others can call you "Liu Jingli", but you must never introduce yourself like this.

Finally, if your partner asks you, "May I know your name?" You can answer, "I don't have your name." Instead of just asking the name, I always answer "I am free, my last name is X". Because "your surname" is a kind of honorific title. China has been deeply influenced by Confucianism. Confucianism particularly emphasizes "respecting others and belittling yourself". If you put yourself in a position of respect, others will think you are arrogant.

Business banquets, cocktail parties, dances and other social occasions are generally more relaxed. When introducing yourself, you can attach personal information such as your hobbies, hometown, some acquaintances in your network, and open the dialogue box to quickly narrow the distance between you.
