Gone are the days when professional courtesy was a standard now it has merely phased into a option. I see often undercutting in big business settings as well as small settings. It is now a commonly used practice especially in public relations. You want to take business from someone the first thing you go for is their creditability. You ruin their creditability you also ruin the change of recovery, but the question does become after you have done all that are people looking at you now because of the long hours you put in or the fact that you will sling mud to make it to the top. Gone are the days when business people networked with the true intensions of expanding upon their businesses and including others in that expansion, now at most events there is always 1-5 cases of “They don’t like me” or stand-offish gawkers who have heard various accounts of the truth from tainted sources. This is also a part of that ruin the creditability tactic. I don’t remember exactly when that was a professional way to carry on at a event but maybe I missed some sort of memo or maybe I am too focused on what I remember being professional to actually mean. When professional courtesy was a widely practiced art this was something that wasn’t so noticeable, it also was not as intense as it has become in recent years. With all markets being saturated with new workers and new businesses springing up it is becoming clear that no one wants to play fair. Let us know what professional courtesy & professionalism means to you no matter your industry and or field your feedback is greatly appreciated.
