The era of Heisei has ended and the name of the era has changed to Reiwa, but it is whispered that young people today are ignorant of manners and morals due to the influence of relaxed education.

Of course, it's not all young people, but only some people, but there are more and more people who are weak and weak in patience even after becoming a member of society.

That said, it is said from overseas that Japan is overly conscious of manners and courtesy.

It may be difficult for young people today to understand why we should show excessive respect to the elderly. The business card exchange is a true manifestation of this.

In this article, we will introduce the truth about how it is said that exchanging business cards is silly among young people, whether Japanese business etiquette can be used overseas, and why Japan is so picky about rules.

Did you know that the etiquette of exchanging business cards is considered silly among young people?

Manners are not the customs that are decided for people to live comfortably in society.

And because it is a matter of our feelings, for example, when eating with an elderly person at a restaurant, many elderly people are concerned about whether they are seated at the top or bottom of the table, but young people do not have such a relationship. There are also cases where people disrespect manners because they think they are not.

Then, depending on the case, some people will feel bad. Also, as a member of society, there are more opportunities to exchange business cards with business partners and customers.

However, some young people today think that handing over business cards is silly. This is because there are many manners when exchanging business cards.

So, in addition to thinking that manners are troublesome, there may be an increasing number of young people who are lazy.

Therefore, some young people become even more rebellious when they are approached or preached in an overbearing manner.

Here are some mistakes that young people tend to make when exchanging business cards.

When you become a member of society, many companies instill business manners into new employees. Until then, many young people who had been in a student mood will find it difficult to adapt because the environment will change drastically.

In addition, there are places where the companies themselves have turned into black companies, so they force young people to work.

In addition, some black companies do not give new employees training on business manners, so young people are likely to make mistakes because they inevitably do not learn business manners.

Here are some of the mistakes that young people tend to make.

・Hand over a business card before greeting

・Pass business cards appropriately without worrying about the other person's position

・Exchanging business cards after business negotiations and meetings

・Exchanging business cards over the desk

・Hand over dirty or bent business cards

There are many mistakes that young people tend to make when exchanging business cards. Of course, if you're a new employee, you won't learn business manners unless you go through a lot of times, so it's important to overlook some mistakes.

After a young person fails to exchange business cards, don't do anything like power harassment that reprimands them or pushes them into a corner.

Failure is also said to be the source of success. There are no perfect people in the world. It is important for the elderly to follow up so that young people can reflect on themselves and make use of the lessons learned from their failures next time.

I will introduce whether Japanese manners for exchanging business cards are applicable overseas.

In Japan, it is common practice to exchange business cards at the beginning of business negotiations and meetings, but in the United States, business card exchange is not very important.

In Japan, it is common for the elderly to strictly teach young people how to exchange business cards and instill business manners into them.

It is considered a virtue to show respect to others and behave in a polite manner. On the other hand, overseas, such as the United States, business cards are used as memorandums, and are used as a tool to remember the other party.

Therefore, it seems that there are few places overseas that are as conscious of the etiquette of exchanging business cards as in Japan.

Also, the behavior of bowing to customers is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, but in other countries, the etiquette of being so polite is not as common as in Japan.

Therefore, if Japanese young people place too much importance on the manners of exchanging business cards overseas, foreigners may think that they are restless.

I will introduce the etiquette of exchanging business cards because it is silly and should be avoided.

There are no strict rules for manners, and to some extent it depends on the individual's feelings, so in some cases it can be a nuisance.

Also, there are many cases in which there are many cases in which manners and decency are imposed on young people.

However, it is better to know the manners of exchanging business cards than not to make them feel rude.

It would be good to be conscious of the manners of exchanging business cards on a case-by-case basis and not to act too excessively.

So, I don't think it's better to get rid of business etiquette and exchanging business cards because it's silly. As much as possible, it is important not to be rude to the other person and to treat them with the minimum amount of courtesy.

I will explain why Japan is so picky about the etiquette of exchanging business cards.

In the first place, the reason why there are business manners and manners for exchanging business cards is that they are intended to make it easier to build a relationship of trust with customers.

However, there are some silly etiquettes that don't make sense, and it's possible to push your business card etiquette too much and make the other person feel bad.

So I think it is wrong for the elderly to overbear and preach manners and etiquette to the young.

Even if you are not good at exchanging business cards, young people who are working hard on greetings and etiquette are likely to be liked by older people and customers.

Therefore, it is important to improve not only the manners of exchanging business cards, but also the overall level of business etiquette.

Many young people are mentally weak.

If they make a mistake, help them out or follow up with them, and when they do a good job, praise them to nurture their minds.

Some young people disregard the manners of exchanging business cards because they think it's troublesome or silly.

Japanese business etiquette and manners for exchanging business cards seem to be excessive when viewed from overseas.

The seniority-based society is disappearing, so I think it is important for the elderly to try to be more considerate of the feelings of the young, and for the young to have honest feelings.
