Points for greeting at a social gathering
Here are five points to keep in mind when greeting at a social gathering.
1. 1. As short as possible
Make greetings such as social gatherings as short as possible.
If the greeting time is too long, the social gathering time will be limited.
It's best if it fits in a minute or two.
2. Make a greeting that matches the atmosphere of the meeting
Let's say hello according to the purpose of the meeting.
For example, the content of greetings varies between parties that gather outside executives and internal social gatherings.
In the former case, it is important to give a polite greeting to entertain the customer, and in the latter case, it is important to exchange information that raises the morale of employees and aims for labor.
Let's give an appropriate greeting without destroying the atmosphere of the place.
3. 3. Add your own personality
It depends on the content of the meeting, but it's not just a mundane greeting
We recommend that you add some thoughts and thoughts of your own.
It would be better if we could add a few words that would resonate with everyone, such as "I'm glad to meet you" and "I'm glad we all got over the situation in this project." Isn't it?
It may be good to think about the content while thinking about the meaning of the nomination as to why you decided to say hello.
Also, if you don't think you can come up with a good greeting on the spot, practice what to say in advance.
If you take the stage without thinking about it, or if you can't hear it in a small voice, it will affect the impression of the meeting.
Whether you are not confident or confident, it is important to prepare in advance just in case.
Four. Clarify the "purpose of the meeting" at the opening remarks
When you are entrusted with the opening remarks, let's restate the "purpose of the meeting" as to how the participants should spend their time in the future.
By sharing the “purpose of the meeting” with everyone first, we should be able to make the social gathering more meaningful.
Five. At the closing remarks, talk about "gratitude" and "future prospects"
In the closing remarks, let's first express our gratitude to all the participants and staff for the smooth holding of the meeting.
In the case of an in-house social gathering, it is a good idea to make a positive vow such as "Let's do our best next term".
Let's conclude with a word that motivates participants such as employees.
