年終辦公室送禮小攻略

Outside the Office

　　辦公室之外

　　It's your call whether to buy gifts for clients, vendors or people you have a professional relationship with outside the office.

　　是否要給客戶、供應商或辦公室以外和你有業(yè)務關系的人買禮物，這就要你自己拿主意了。

　　If your office sends out gifts to clients and vendors, there's 'no need to do something on top of that,' says Ms. Post. Write a nice card if you feel like that 'person really made your year.'

　　波斯特說，如果你們辦公室給客戶或供應商送了禮物，你就沒有必要再額外送了。如果你覺得對方在這一年里真是你的貴人，那么就送張精美的卡片。

If you decide to buy gifts for clients or vendors, make sure their company guidelines allow them to accept gifts. You also should check your company's gift-giving guidelines, especially if you plan to use company funds to purchase presents.

　　如果你決定給客戶或供應商買禮物，要確保他們的公司行為守則允許他們接受禮物。你還應該察看自己公司的送禮規(guī)定，特別是如果你打算用公司的錢買禮物的話。

　　If you attend a holiday party with colleagues in someone's home, make sure you bring a hostess gift. Leah Ingram, a gift and etiquette expert who runs giftsandetiquette.com, says that while wine is usually a popular hostess gift, it may not always be appropriate if it's a work event. A nice box of chocolates or a poinsettia plant are good options, she says。

　　如果你和同事到別人家里開節(jié)日派對，一定要給女主人帶一份禮物。禮物及禮儀專家、經營giftsandetiquette.com網站的李爾·英格拉姆說，盡管葡萄酒通常是非常受歡迎的禮物，但如果是工作相關的活動，就并不一定合適了。她說，一盒上好的巧克力或是一株一品紅都是不錯的選擇。
