Business relations and deals are made or stillborn not at the boardroom but well before.
 
How you behave at lunch, dinner, cocktail events, and very formal events are carefully scrutinized as they relate more about you than you realize.
The way you sit, hold your glass of wine or spirits, and engage with others will influence how others perceive you.

 

We may not find that fair but sadly it is a fact.
