21st Century Business Etiquette begins by asking you to define success for your
self. Since there is no mold for success, the definition will be different for everyone. 

This book begins by discussing self-assessment. Many people never take the time to 
assess what will bring them fulfillment in the workplace. Later chapters will explore 
the job search, personal branding, office etiquette, and the correct decorum to possess, when conducting business in a foreign environment.

Each chapter of this book begins with a quote that the authors believe captures 
the essence of the information in that section. There are also exercises and activi
ties throughout the book, which will allow you to practice what you have learned. 

This book is a guide that can be used throughout your career to remind you that 
manners and proper behavior never go out of style.
