Meeting etiquette-before the meeting

Please review your work status. In addition to the time at your work station and the telephone communication time, which communication methods are more? This is meeting communication. Let s talk about the etiquette that we should pay attention to during the meeting.

According to the participants, the conference can be basically divided into external meetings and internal meetings of the company. External company meetings can be divided into product launches, seminars, symposia, etc.

Internal meetings include regular work week meetings, monthly meetings, year-end summaries, commendations, and planning meetings.

We take an external meeting as an example to talk about some details that need attention in business etiquette. We divide the conference into pre-meeting, post-meeting and post-meeting.

Before the meeting

In preparation for the conference, we need to pay attention to the following aspects:

· WHEN-start time and duration of the meeting;

WHERE-Confirmation of meeting place;

· WHO-conference attendees;

WHAT-Conference topics;

· OTHERS-Shuttle service, conference equipment and information, company souvenirs, etc.

WHEN-Time, you have to tell all the participants, when the meeting will start and how long it will take. This allows the participants to organize their work well.

WHERE-Location refers to the place where the meeting is held. Pay attention to whether the layout of the meeting room is suitable for the meeting.

WHO-People: Take the external meetings of the company where external customers participate as an example. Who are the participants of the meeting and who is attending the company? Have you invited external guests to attend this meeting?

WHAT-The topic of the meeting is what issues to discuss.

OTHERS-Preparation of meeting items, which items are needed according to the type and purpose of the meeting. Such as paper, pen, notebook, projector, etc. Do you need coffee, snacks, etc.?

Meeting etiquette--in a meeting

During the meeting, we need to pay attention to the following aspects:

(1) Moderator

Attention should be paid when chairing the meeting.Introduce participants. Control the meeting process. Avoid digression or deliberation. Control the meeting time.

(2) Arrangement of conference seats

In general, the arrangement of conference seats is divided into two categories: square table meetings and round table meetings.

In general, the conference room is a rectangular table, including an oval, which is a so-called square table conference.

Pay special attention to seating arrangements during square table meetings. If there is only one leader, then he usually sits on the short side of this rectangle, or in a relatively inward position. In other words, the door of the conference room is used as the reference point, and the position of the guest is on the inside. If the meeting is attended by both the host and the guest, they usually sit on two sides, the host sits on the right side of the conference table, and the guest sits on the left side of the conference table.

Another is to avoid such a primary and secondary arrangement, and the round table layout is a round table conference. In a round table meeting, you don't have to stick to so many etiquettes. Remember to use the door as a reference point, and the seat inside is the main seat.

Meeting etiquette-after the meeting

After the meeting, we should pay attention to the following details in order to reflect good business etiquette. mainly include:

· The talks should have written results. Even if there are no written results, phased resolutions should be formed and implemented on paper. There should also be someone responsible for follow-up of related matters;

· Present company souvenirs;

· Visit, such as visiting a company, or a factory building;

Take a group photo if necessary.

With the development of the tertiary industry in China, the conference industry, as a new economic form, has become a new growth point for the development of the national economy, and has increased at a rate of 20% per year, and has quickly become a new bright spot in the development of the national economy. In the short period of 20 years, it has become increasingly mature, but there is still a large gap compared with developed countries in the international conferences. ^[3]

Definition of Conference Education

With the great development of the conference industry, many colleges and universities have joined the ranks of convention and exhibition education, training students to have the theory, knowledge, and skills capable of performing various tasks in the field of convention and exhibition. China has formed an education system covering vocational training, secondary vocational education, higher vocational education, undergraduate education, and master's education. ^[5]

Development of Conference Education

Conference Education Status

Conference education is a part of convention and exhibition education, and China's undergraduate college convention and exhibition professional education was originally derived from some related majors.

For example, in 1991, the China Academy of Art established the direction of display design, and in 2000 the Zhejiang City University established the direction of exhibition management. In 2003, the Ministry of Education officially approved Shanghai Normal University and Shanghai University of Foreign Trade to set up an undergraduate major in exhibition economics and management. China's convention and exhibition major has taken a historic step. From 2003 to 2010, 47 and 8 schools of convention and exhibition economy and management, convention and exhibition art and technology have been registered or approved by the Ministry of Education.

In the current "Catalogue of Undergraduate Programs for General Colleges and Universities in China", the majors related to MICE education are MICE Economy and Management (110311S Management Degree) and MICE Art and Technology (050427S Literature Degree). Major, subject status is relatively low. ^[5]
