Program “Business Etiquette” - presented by Arden Clise This was an interesting program designed to help everyone by more confident and comfortable in business/social settings.

Arden covered such things as why we should wear our name tags on the right side, and how to handle forgetting someone’s name. Additionally, she pointed out the negative effects of looking at our phone or around the room during a conversation.
