Practice Meeting New People

Today is a practice day.

First, let’s summarize this week’s lessons.

When you meet someone for the first time, make sure you have a good attitude. Then make your greeting…

  1. Face the person
  2. Eye contact
  3. Smile
  4. Greeting – “Hello” or “Hi”
  5. Handshake or nod
  6. Lean

After the initial greeting, maintain open body language by having an open stance, maintaining eye contact, with your arms uncrossed and your hands open.

We will go over formal introductions in another lesson. For now, concentrate on your greeting.

Here are a few scenarios for practice…

  • You are meeting your friend’s Aunt Gertrude.
  • You are meeting your mom’s friend, Mrs. Hunkleberry.
  • You are meeting Bob, the world’s first talking elephant.

See if you can come up with a few more.
