Dress
Formal business suits and skirts and
dresses are best in the UK. Men should
wear lace up shoes not loafers.
Meetings
Always be punctual to meeting in the UK;
even a few minutes early is good practice.
Gifts
Gifts are generally not part of doing
business in the UK.
Hand Gestures and Body Language
Eye contact is seldom held during
discussions. Tapping your nose indicates
that something is to be kept confidential.
Formalities
Privacy is very important to the people in
the UK, so asking many personal
questions is discouraged.
