Making introductions write an appropriate introduction for each situation. (learning objective 3) • you are at a business dinner. you are introducing kimberly loukinen, a new student assistant, to your supervisor, melody hoover. • leroy sanchez, the president of the local kiwanis club, is visiting your organization. you are introducing him to thomas lopez, the president of the organization. • you are shopping with your grandmother, mrs. bethany rinaldi, and you run into your supervisor, melody hoover.

When making introductions of people, whether it is two strangers at a party, or a new employee to a boss, or making introductions to possible business partners, buyers, etc., what needs to always be taken into consideration is: who you are introducing to, what is the purpose of the introduction, and what is the proper vocabulary, tone and gestures that must be used. There must always be an appropriate greeting of the person to whom you are going to introduce yourself, or someone else, depending on the time of day, and the proper use of titles, or names, depending on the situation. As such, in the following scenarios, it would be like this:

1. Introduction of a new student assistand, Kimberly Loukinen, to you own supervisor, Melody Hoover. You: Good evening, Melody (if you are already on first-name terms with your supervisor. Otherwise, better go with Ms. Hoover). Supervisor: Hello. You: I just wanted to introduce you to my new student assistant, Ms. Kimberly Loukinen, who will now be joining our team. Since this is a business dinner, and it takes place in the evening, that is why you say good evening, and only use the first-name of your supervisor if you have known each other for a while and are somewhat familiar. Otherwise, always stick to the more formal version: Ms, Mrs, Miss, or Mr, as appropriate.

2. Introduction of the president of the local Kiwanis club, Leroy Sanchez, who is visiting your organization, by you, to the president of your organization, Thomas Lopez. You: Good day, Mr. Lopez, I wanted to introduce you to Mr. Leroy Sanchez, he is the president of the Kiwanis club, and he is here visitng us today. You greet the person you will introduce the other person to, and first give the name and title of the other person, and then explain his purpose for being at your place of work.

3. Shopping with grandmother, outside of business hours and you meet your boss, Melody Hoover. Your grandmother is Bethany Rinaldi. You: Hello  Melody (or if not familiar with her yet, better go with Ms. Hoover), how are you today? Supervisor: I am good, you? You: Very well, thank you. Melody, I wanted to introduce you to my grandmother, Mrs. Bethany Rinaldi. This is possible because although there are still certain limits, since Melody is your boss, you can relax a bit more and make your introductions a bit less formal, and more familiar.

that’s the kind of bug henry was; and if we’d a had him along ’stead of our kings, he’d a fooled that town a heap worse than ourn done.”
