Getting Down to Business Useful Italian Phrases and Etiquette Tips for Doing Business

Getting Down to Business Useful Italian Phrases and Etiquette Tips for Doing Business Brooke Neuman Close the deal on your next Italian business trip with this lesson from  Italian teacher Nadia B. on  useful Italian phrases and etiquette tips for doing business Are you planning on doing business in Italy? It’s important that you learn Italianâ€"even just a littleâ€"before your trip, as you want to interact with constituents in a professional and polite manner. In this article, we’ll explore various useful Italian phrases and words you can use to ensure your meetings go off without a hitch. But before we jump into learning Italian, below are some helpful etiquette tips. Italian Business Etiquette Tips When it comes to doing business, Italy and the U.S. are fairly similar; however, there are some cultural differences. Use the tips below to ensure that you’re well prepared for your meeting. Be on time: Contrary to popular belief, Italians take punctuality for business meetings very seriously. Make sure your on time for meetings and leave yourself enough time to get to your destination if you’re not familiar with the area. Gift giving: Only after you’ve established a trusted relationship with your Italian constituents is it appropriate to give a small gift. Proper gifts include liquors, delicacies, or crafts from your native country. Dress Code: Italians are as serious about their fashion as they are their food. Make sure, therefore, that you dress to impress. Men typically wear high-quality, tailored suits, while women opt for a feminine skirt suit or dress. Greetings: Greet the group by saying “Buongiorno” (good morning) or Buonasera? (good afternoon/evening) and shake each individual’s hand. Typically, older people and women will be introduced first. Titles:  When meeting someone for the first time, address the person with his or her appropriate title followed by his or her last name. For example, Dottore and Dottoressa for individuals holding a university degree, Avvocato for a lawyer,  Ingegnere for an engineer, and Architetto for an architect. Useful Italian Phrases for Business Perhaps the most important concept to learn in Italian is the use of the formal ‘you’. While in English, there’s only one way to address a person, in Italian theres a  formal (“Lei”) and an informal (“tu”) option. In most business situations, you’ll want to use “Lei” since it’s more formal and a sign of respect. However, if you find yourself among colleagues of a similar age in a more casual situation, it may be more appropriate to use “tu”. Here are some other useful Italian phrases for initial introductions and greetings, as well as some  helpful  networking phrases. “Buongiorno, come sta/stai?” (Hello, how are you [formal/informal]?) “Piacere.” (Nice to meet you.) “Come si chiama/ti chiami?” (What is your name (formal/informal)?) “Sono ___.” (My name is ___.) “Per quale società lavora/i?” (For what company do you [formal/informal] work?) “M’interesserebbe sapere più del suo/tuo lavoro.” (I would be interested to learn more about your [formal/informal] work.) “Posso avere il suo/tuo recapito?” (Can I have your [formal/informal] contact information?) “Se vuole/vuoi, mi piacerebbe incontrarci per un caffè.” (If you [formal/informal] like, I’d like to meet you for a coffee.) When you’re really getting down to business, you might need the following Italian phrases. “Quanto costerebbe questo progetto?” (How much would this project cost?) “Quanti articoli vorrebbe/vorresti?” (How many items would you [formal/informal] want?) “Quando potrebbe essere realizzato?” (When could it be completed?) “Possiamo usare l’inglese per communicare?” (Can we use English to communicate?) Lastly, here are some useful Italian vocabulary words that might come in handy. la riunione (meeting) l’agenda (agenda) la presentazione (presentation) il verbale (report) la tassa (tax) il salario (salary) gli affari (business [in the general sense]) l’azienda/l’impresa (company) l’impiego/il lavoro (occupation) il negozio (shop/store) il/la cliente (client) il pranzo di lavoro (working lunch) il biglietto da visita (business card) i contatti (contacts) With these useful Italian phrases and etiquette tips above, youll be able to smoothly navigate throughout the world of business in Italy.

How To Powerfully Answer the Question What Do You Do - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / How To Powerfully Answer the Question What Do You Do - Introvert Whisperer How To Powerfully Answer the Question: What Do You Do? At this holiday time, parties abound and with them the opportunity to expand your network is huge.  It’s important that you make a lasting impression with the new people you meet and that impression isn’t just about how you look.   A real lasting impression is based on helping the other person anchor their understanding about YOU to something meaningful.   The problem with most new encounters is they are rooted in a poor response to the time-honored question:  What Do You Do?  We are trained to respond with our job title or a close resemblance of a job title mostly because the vast majority of people respond in that way.  It doesn’t mean it’s the best thing to do.   So, what’s the problem with answering with your job title?  Let me list a few reasons: It’s predictable.  Like I said, the vast majority of people respond with a job title.  Predictable is boring which equates to “forgettable”.  Do you want to be forgettable? It’s boring.  This could go with the previous one but I’m trying to make a point. The brain shuts down if nothing interesting is said.  Interesting is something that the other person can relate to and perhaps take advantage of at some point in the future.  It’s the WIIFM effect (What’s In It For Me). Job titles are rarely relatable.  Job titles are usually made up on the spur of the moment and are often so cryptic that only the insiders can understand.  Job titles are babble.   You can make the right impression, be memorable and be a standout in all of those gatherings this year.  All it takes is a great alternative to using a job title.   Let’s look at how you can craft a great response:   What do you accomplish or what results to you obtain? You probably obtain a number of really great results, so what are the ones you want to be known for?  An example would be if you were a project manager, one of the results you obtain is timely completion of X type of projects or it could be the size of the project or being under budget. What kind of impact do you make? Similar to the previous question but another way to look at the work you do.  Does your project save time, money, make money or reduce workload?  This is where you think in terms of the impact your results have on business or people. Who receives the benefit from what you do? This is important because this is where your newly acquired friend can start relating your work to them or people they know.  (Its good to “know people” in this case, YOU)  Does your work impact business owners in the power sector? Or individuals with ambitions? Non-profits? Now that you’ve got these things in mind, it’s time to add a verb that applies to your work and use these elements to create a seriously powerful and memorable introduction.  Keep it to 1 sentence.  It would sound like this: “I manage projects for medium-sized factories that cut down assembly time and save the company 50% of labor cost.” “I show my clients how to lose up to 20% body fat without feeling tortured while they do it.” These aren’t boring or predictable and will help new people remember you.  Also, when you respond to that inevitable question of “What do you do?” this way, it helps keep the conversation going which is the sign of a good conversationalist.   You will need to write down and practice your response so it starts feeling comfortable and second nature to you.  Then, go to those holiday parties and be the rock star. Personal Branding starts with how well you speak about YOU.  I want to help you accelerate your success by connecting you with my new book: Elevator Speeches That Get Results.  In this book, I give you simple to follow instructions for creating a “wardrobe” of ways to talk about you â€" to leave a lasting impression.  Get your copy now.

Linear Functions

Linear Functions An algebraic expression with degree 1 is called as a linear expression. The standard form of a line is Ax + By = C.Here A, B and C are constantsx and y are variablesSo Ax+ By = c is a linear equation with two variables.Linear Equations can be represented in many forms. A linear equation may have any number of variables. Suppose it is n then the linear equation is of the form a1x1 + a2x2+a3x3++an xn = CC C is a constant and x1, x2.,xnare variables 1)What is the degree of x + 3y = 12 ? The power of x is 2 and the power of y is 1. Degree = Highest power = 2 Example 1: 2x + 3 = 19 (Linear equation in one variable) 2x +3- 3 = 19 3 (Add -3 on both sides) 2x/2 = 16/2(Divide by 2 on both sides) x = 8 Example 2: 4x + 3y + 7 = 0 (Linear equations in two variables x y) NOTE: Number of solutions of an equation is equal to the degree of the equation. 4) Choose a Linear expression from the following (a) y (b) 6x/2y (c) 2xy + 6 (d) 7x + 9y (e) y Answer: d 5) x + 2 = 12. Solve for x x + 4 = 12 (Square the number) x + 4 4= 124 (Add -4 on both sides) x = 8

A Timeline for Applying to Law School

A Timeline for Applying to Law School LSAT Law School Blog Today’s guest post comes fromAnn Levine, president and chief consultant atLaw School Expert. Ann is the former director of law school admissions at two ABA-approved law schools and the nation’s leading law school admission consultant. Law School Expert provides hourly and beginning-to-end consulting, and Ann has personally guided over 2,000 law school applicants through the law school admission process. Ann is also the author of the bestselling law school admission guidebookThe Law School Admission Game: Play Like an Expert. A Timeline for Applying to Law School Law school applications are released starting in the end of August, but some schools don’t release applications until October 1. When you choose to submit your applications is mostly dependent on when you are taking theLSAT. A good rule of thumb is to try to submit applications before the nextLSATadministration. For example: If you take the JuneLSAT, you want to submit applications in September/October (before the OctoberLSATis given). If you take the OctoberLSAT, you want to submit applications in November/early December (before the DecemberLSATis given). If you take the DecemberLSAT, submit applications by the end of January (before the FebruaryLSATis given). If you take the FebruaryLSAT, you might be in big trouble! Ideally, you are not applying for the current year’s application season, but applying in the fall for the following year’s application season. If you end up doing well on theLSAT, you could potentially find a place at a law school that would love to have you, but it’s not a great strategy for getting into a reach school because the schools have waiting lists to go to at that point, if a spot opens up in the class. After submitting your applications, you should make sure the schools receive everything they need to render a decision. This is called “making sure your file is complete,” and it is your responsibility. After you do this, you should then expect to wait at least 4 weeks, and sometimes more than 4 months, for a response from law schools. Just because the schools say they will mail decisions by April 15 and require deposits by May 15, doesn’t mean you’ll have decisions back from schools. You should expect to find yourself on waiting lists (which can drag the process out into August). hbspt.cta._relativeUrls=true;hbspt.cta.load(215486, '6baac2ae-05a3-4610-9d1f-265c8cbd809f', {});

Reading Programs for Struggling Readers

Reading Programs for Struggling Readers Struggling Readers Can Suffer In all Academic Subjects but Reading Programs Can Help Reading isn't just about opening a book and being able to read the story. It is a complex process that requires students to interpret new concepts, make connections between previously read texts, evaluate their own understanding, make inferences and predictions, anddraw conclusions based on previous knowledge. When a child is struggling with reading skills it affects much more than the ability to read and comprehend a book. Reading permeates every facet of life, impacts allsubject areas, and can have a major effect on a student's academic confidence. Multiple academic disciplines are affected when a student is struggling in reading. Areas of concern may include: Math Students are expected to readand interpret mathematical word problems, follow complex directions, andapply critical thinking skills to mathematical scenarios. Before beginning any mathematical calculationa struggling reader will likely facedifficulty comprehendingthe problem and determining where tobegin. ScienceScience courses, such aschemistry, biology, physics, and earth science, require students to readand understand textbooks, follow laboratory directions, and interpretscientific reports. Struggling readers face additional difficulties withcomplex vocabulary and academic terms that impact overall understanding. History and social studiesSolid reading skills areessential for success in social studies and historycourses. Students must be able to read and understand textbooks, academic articles, biographies, and primary documents. Many of these texts includespecialized vocabulary, require students to identify historicalconnections, and are best understood within the context of previous readingand learning. Foreign languages Learning a foreign languagerequires a student to understand and be able to applyphonological(blendingsounds together and segmenting sounds from words) and orthographic (the sound-symbol connection) processes. Struggling readersmay face difficulties with these basic processes which impact both theirreading ability and the comprehension required to learn a foreignlanguage. Career preparation Your child's success in school will have a direct impact on career preparation and the ability to succeed in future work.
