The main objective of business communication is productive cooperation. The most important thing is to know how to communicate. Communication is necessary not only to present its point of view orally or in writing, but also to perceive other people's opinions. Just can not forget about the appearance, because it creates the first impression. For example, for an interview, you don't come in shorts, shirt and sneakers, because the employer will understand that you don't know the basics of business communication. If your life involves important work and especially work with people, you should wear classic outfits: white shirt, black skirt, and shoes.
Ignorance of such important factors in business communication can lead to awkward situations. I advise you to study some aspects of business communication.
