Y series- How to Interact in an Official Life...

Some of the very basic ethics and tactics which I think everyone knows but often observed as ignored situations. I would like to tip these personally. The people who are working in more or less small to medium scale companies, crew of a research center or in universities where they get in contact with the people of different nationalities should,1: remember "a cultural greeting" at the place where you work. Generally, it leads to have moralistic depiction of your personality and a humanistic respect of you surrounding people.2: Keep a smiling face as a key to unlock friendship, compare notes and talk together.3: Remember the name, academic history of your colleagues, especially if you are in research group at a university, get know-how of their projects and goals.4: Always be sharp, in time to the office or laboratory but flexible to leaving...5: Be precise in dealing, money, and "paper-matters". Documentation should be in an order to access systematically and symmetrically.6: Always share precious time of "coffee break" as in Germany, or Tee break in UK...or lunch times... these are the times when people of different backgrounds, diverse project round the table and you get a possibility to converse your views, listen their specialties, success stories, international cultural events in your country, religion or special foods stuff... even if you are lucky and still single can also come across your suitable life partner!7: Be active in social events of your working place. Interaction and participation in Get together is as vital as your report. Anyhow you get experiences of different matters of working social life.8: If there is more than one colleague in your office, be friendly, and be judging when they need your suggestion in their matters. Do not poke every time your nose in their matters even it is interesting to you. This also depends on if you are male or female. But it is always better and respectful when they ask your opinion, you should impart your honest suggestion.Well, personally I am not in favor of celebrating birthdays at your working place but as seen in some advanced countries, some people like to! But it depends upon the type and condition plus the working style of your company. Well, you have to decide yourself but events like inauguration ceremonies etc... are worthy to rejoice fully.9: Build a strong communication line with your boss and the leader of your company in terms of your working reports and update of your project status. If you are the leader of the special department then leave the door open for everyone at anytime to "come and ask". The feelings of "master-slave" relation are sometimes critical. It is always superior compromising the situations with "give and take" strategy.As seen, many times there starts grouping and "mobbing" in the business and even in university research institutes. Well, it is true that there could be some "difference" in personal view points but everyone should keep in mind the Ethics and collective aim of the company, the university or the general body of the group...10: If you are the head of you department where about 100 or more people work in your supervision, especially with different nationalities and cultural background, you should take care of not only the basic cultural demands but also sometimes come to their levels and special religious events, interfaith too.11: The confidence in helping the colleagues in all kinds of their problems.12: Least but not the last, I would like to secure my PC before I leave my office even for 5 minutes, lock perfectly your confidential documents of special projects and make password protected folders.
