Should you hug people at the office? Canadians don't

Jim Dunning is a hugger.

Arms extended wide, he's always looking to wrap his arms around somebody — even his clients.“I have been in many situations where I feel it is appropriate to hug,” said Dunning, a national sales manager for Exclusive Educational Products, a company based in Barrie. His clients are all kinds of people: teachers, principals, consultants, bureaucrats and premiers.

If he's known them long enough, and is certain they like to be hugged, Dunning greets his clients with a two-armed squeeze. Sometimes they even hug him first. “But that's not the norm I recommend,” Dunning said. “Theoretically, I disagree with the practice of hugging the people you work with.”

Results from a new survey show the majority of marketing and advertising executives across Canada discourage full-body contact displays of affection. The survey results were released by employee placement firm The Creative Group. The firm found 58 per cent of Canadian executives surveyed believe hugging co-workers in a business setting is inappropriate; 72 per cent per cent said they hardly ever hug their clients or business contacts.

The survey results draw from interview responses from 200 marketing executives from companies with more than 100 employees, and 50 advertising executives from agencies with more than 20 employees. Hugs, even brief ones, could be misconstrued as harassment, said Lara Dodo, The Creative Group's regional vice-president in Toronto.
Body parts can bump by accident. The recipient may not feel comfortable rejecting the hug. It can very easily get awkward.

“No one wants a problem when they don't intend one,” she said. “Personality styles differ, too. For some people, it's out of their comfort zone.”
Dunning gives his office manager a loose, one-arm hug about once a year, to show his gratitude for all that she does for the company, but even that makes him somewhat uneasy.

“Hugging really is a communication style. Err on the side of caution, particularly for first-time encounters.” Dodo said. “Don't hug right away. Extend the hand.”
Corporate image consultant Diane Craig doesn't see a place for hugging in any business environment.

“In business etiquette ... we discourage people from hugging,” said Craig, the president of Corporate Class Inc. in Toronto. “Demonstrating familiarity like that can put some ill at ease.” If executives are already uneasy about personal space within Canada's borders, they may need to modify their behaviour when conducting business in a foreign country, Dodo said.

“If you know your audience, prepare,” she said. “If you happen to be going on a business meeting in Italy, know the customs of Italy.” Cheek kisses are customary in offices in Italy, as they are in Russia. In Japan and Korea, it's more common to bow when attending a business meeting. Handshakes are commonplace in Canada, the U.S. and Britain.

Welcoming international business contacts to Canada comes with homework, too.
“If someone reaches forward to give you a kiss on the cheek, (and) you know the custom, (you) won't be taken aback and end up insulting your business colleagues,” Dodo said. If there's still any doubt, a firm handshake and eye contact can assuage the awkwardness of a badly-timed bear hug. “A nice warm smile and eye contact is still going to make people feel very welcome,” Dodo said.

Hug to you Bubba and anybody else who needs one.
Or group hug, ok no taking out your clothes:lol:
Hmmm..........there are a few women I would like a hug from and...........:666:
Especially on Saturday.:love:
 
jesus bliss, you're like a broken record!!! We get it, you're hot for women...ok?

Sorry, Hugging in the office is SO unprofessional. Now with that being said there were a few clients I worked closely with for weeks on end and went through trying times with so after it was all over we hugged....thankfully they were hot little cuties.....

In the office however? You're risking a BIG SH lawsuit........
 
So all the stuff you write about women, I get it tboy you are into women.LOL does tboy stand for Tom Boy:lol:

Hugging is Great, Fun and Healthy, as long as everybody that. In France or Italy they kiss. Even Guys tboy. I am in a wonderful mood and oh tboy she is F**king Perfect.:angel: No hugs for tboy maybe a spanking......
 
Bubba don't do it, every time McGuinty has hugged me I notice my pockets are a few dollars short.
 
You guys go on ahead without me... :shock:

:shock:
 
I have a friend who is a hugger. It is so offputting he nearly didn't become a friend. He hugs everyone for any reason. Over a period of time you just realize that is just who he is. sometimes it's pretty funny to watch new people come into the mix. Here he is doing the Vince Vaughn thing while the new people look like a deer in the headlights.
 
Who gets turned off going to an Italian Restaurant and the Maitre'D starts kissing men and women on both cheeks without even knowing who the people are?.
 
What is a kiss or peck or the cheek?

You do an escort without knowing her.:666:

I have friends who do that all the time we meet cultural, it when the men from other cultures think it ok to have a quick FEEL it becomes uncomfortable. Swedes are the worst:slap: Italians, Middle Eastern.
