People all over the world is has been agog by the much anticipated royal wedding of the year. With just a little over a week or so from now, the second-in-line to the British throne, Prince William, will finally tie the knot with his longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton. All eyes will be watching them and it seems that the world is taken by storm with all things royal. Well, I could not blame them. Wouldn't you want to be a little bit royal at least once in your life? Oh, to be a prince and a princess for a day!
But what makes royalty royal in the truest sense of the word is how they act out the part. Good etiquette. As we all know by now, royalty is known for their unending protocols, good manners, and right conduct at every given situation. They just seem to know how to do things properly - sit, stand, handshake, wave, and smile. I am guessing that it's a really tough job but if you have been born and grew up in this kind of environment all your life, it just becomes second nature; a piece of cake.
Just because we aren't of royal blood means we can't have at least some royal manners, right? I mean, we couldn't possibly claim to be a blue blood but we could at least learn some good etiquette especially in the digital era.
I have been reading some interesting article recently in Reader's Digest about having a good etiquette in the digital era. Here are some of the questions posted in this article:
Is it appropriate to use emoticons and abbreviations in official e-mail?
Is it acceptable for the boss to send you a text message late at night?
What should you do when your boss wants to befriend you on Facebook?
Should employees be using their mobile phones during a meeting?
Should Facebook or Twitter be a place to (a) start an argument or (b) declare your love?
Can I update my Facebook page or Twitter feeds or reply to an SMS or e-mail, when I am out with my friends?
I'll leave you with these questions on having good etiquette in the digital era to think about and we'll discuss it some more in my next post.
