 The eighth way to make a positive impression is when you meet with a group of people-some you know and some you don't know 当你遇到一群人,有些认识有些不认识时

When I find myself in this situation, I will always greet the people I know and introduce myself to the people I have not yet met. 当我处在这种情况里时,我总是欢迎那些我认识的,主动把自己介绍给我不认识的人。
Once again, this seems to make everyone in the group feel comfortable. 一次又一次的,这样让在场的每一个人感觉很舒服。
The ninth way is when you greet a receptionist 当你问候一个接待员时
Whether you are greeting the receptionist at your dentist's office or at the offices of one of your clients, always introduce yourself with a smile and friendly greeting. 无论你在你的牙医办公室还是客户的办公室里问候接待员,总是面带微笑的介绍自己和友善的招呼。
For instance, "Hi my name is Todd Smith, I have a 4:00 appointment with Steve Johnson." 比如,"你好,我是史密斯托德,我和乔森史蒂文先生在4点钟有个约会"
In the case of a business environment, I always hand the receptionist my business card to go along with my verbal introduction. 在这种商业环境里,我总是在口头介绍时提上自己的名片。
