Episode #018: Richie Frieman (aka The Modern Manners Guy), Author of REPLY ALL…And Other Ways to Tank Your Career

When I think manners and etiquette, my mind automatically goes to things like holding the door for a stranger, knowing which fork to use for my salad, and being careful to use my quiet voice while talking on my cell phone.
If you’re anything like me, you learned most of these things  as a child, either from your parents or your teachers at school. But successfully navigating the minefield of workplace etiquette is something you’ve probably had to learn on the job. Sometimes the hard way. Not anymore!
Richie Frieman has just released a book called, REPLY ALL…And Other Ways to Tank Your Career: A Guide to Workplace Etiquette. He and I chat about it at length on today’s episode.
