If yours is a "title" office, but you call your boss Charlie when meeting alone, you should still call him Mr. Dodd when others are around. 公众场合要注意维护领导的权威嘛！

　　If yours is an informal office, you still should wait for the other person to say, "Please call me Jim."亲密关系不是一下子就能建立起来的，不要还没取得好感就先冒犯了他。

　　Everyone, no matter whether the office is formal of informal, has a name. No assistant should ever be referred to as "my girl." She is, if a possessive must be used, "Charlene Walter, my assistant," or "Angela Badalato, my assistant." 尊重每个人的独立性是建立良好人际关系的第一步。
