The document discusses the importance of handshakes and remembering names when meeting people. It provides tips for a proper handshake, including maintaining eye contact, not putting your other hand on the person, and being ready to initiate a handshake with women. It suggests practicing handshakes with trusted people and creating incentives to help remember names. Making it easy for others to remember your name by stating it is also recommended.

1. “Socialize
with Savvy”

2. Two points are essential in meeting
people; shaking hands and
remembering names.
People should remember you, not your
handshake.

3. Show that you are confident and
friendly and you know how to
behave in a business situation.
Avoid impressing people as aloof,
uncertain, unprofessional or on
the power trip.

4. • Shake up and down slightly or hold for a
moment and let go. Maintain eye contact
throughout the handshake and
introduction.
• Refrain from putting your left hand on the
other person’s arm, shoulder or hand.
Handshakes are for both men and women.
• Some men hesitate to extend the hand to
women, so women should be ready to make
a first move.

5. To improve a shaking hands and remembering names, here
are three suggestions:
• Practice Shaking Hands. Ask few people you trust.
Use this book as an excuse to discuss the importance of
handshakes. Maybe you can agree to help each other
— and take shake on it.
• Create an incentive for learning names. If I gave you
$100 for each name you remembered, how hard you
would try. When you meet somebody, just imagine a
$100 bill over his or her head. Or if money isn’t a
motivator, what about the message, around of golf at
your favorite club, or an extra week of vacation?

6. Make it easy for others. When you meet
someone, help him or her to get your
name and remembered it. Then you’ll find
it easier to make sure you get his or her
name — and remembered it.

7. “ Every successful professional
realizes at some point that he or
she needs business training and
order in reach the next level of his
or her career.”

8. Reaction
• When you meet people especially at the first time, only
shaking hands can make you introduce yourself, and ask
name of person you are shaking hands with.
• I agree that in networking, it is important to know the
person and call the person by his/her name. In school, it
is important to know the persons in administration and
organization. Remembering the names of each person is
really important to build trust and confident to a person
you’re talking with. Practicing a proper handshake will
help you to be more socializing with a person you’re
going to deal with.
