Professional etiquette goes far beyond knowing which fork to use at a formal dinner. In today’s fast-paced and highly connected world, professional etiquette plays a crucial role in personal and professional success, no matter the industry or profession. It is especially important in the healthcare field, where nurses interact with a diverse range of individuals on a daily basis. In her updated edition of “Professional Etiquette,” author Kathleen D. Pagana provides nurses with the tools they need to navigate awkward and challenging situations with grace and confidence.

Whether you are a new graduate or a seasoned nurse, this book will help you interact with executives, subordinates, and colleagues with professionalism and confidence.

A successful job interview can greatly impact one’s career trajectory, and professional etiquette plays a significant role in making a positive impression. In “Professional Etiquette,” Pagana provides guidance on how to present oneself professionally, navigate tricky interview questions, and stand out from other candidates.
Another aspect of professional etiquette covered in the book is managing and moderating meetings. Meetings are an integral part of a nurse’s work life, and knowing how to effectively manage and moderate them can contribute to their overall success. Pagana offers tips and strategies for running productive meetings, keeping participants engaged, and resolving conflicts that may arise during the discussion.
In today’s digital age, online and social media interactions also play a significant role in professional etiquette. Nurses need to be aware of the potential impact their online presence can have on their career. Pagana provides guidance on how to safely and professionally navigate online interactions, ensuring that nurses maintain their reputation and avoid any potential pitfalls.

An increasingly diverse society calls for increased cultural sensitivity and understanding.

Understanding and respecting different cultures can enhance a nurse’s ability to provide culturally competent care and build meaningful relationships with patients and colleagues.
