Global Image Management partners with Maven Magazine!

Last July 14, Global Image Management participated in Maven Magazine's Beyond the Blush Beauty Blowout, held at Trinoma Mall.  I gave an informative and dynamic talk about How to professionalize one's self in the workplace.  It was a wonderful Beauty Blowout by Maven Magazine especially for young female professionals as the whole day was filled with different workshops and beauty make-overs for the confident young Filipina.  Join the Beauty Blowout on the next leg of their mall tour, which will be held at Glorietta Mall on September 15, 2012.

Being Tech-Savvy!

Etiquette has been practised for centuries.  Emailing and texting has only been around for less than 2 decades.  So it is not a surprise that there are still some people who has not integrated etiquette with their electronic or technological lives.  Here are some of the common faux pas in communicating through the latest technology and how to be more tech-savvy in today's modern society:

Practise good email etiquette!

1.  Don't shout (applies to both email and text).
     How would you read the following texts if you receive this in your mobile phone?

    PLEASE SUBMIT THE REPORT TO ME BY 3PM.

    TEXT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

    Or how would you interpret this if you receive something like this on your email:

    I would like to request for you to pick up the documents before 2pm today as I will be out of the office in the afternoon. 

Some may be neutral in reacting to these examples, while others may feel offended, as though they were not capable of understanding the message, so it needed to be emphasized to them.  We write or text certain things one way, but receivers may read it another way.  So always be cautious and wise as to which word/s you may want to emphasize with bold or italics, but make sure that you do not "shout" in your text or emails.

More tech-savvy tips after the break!
