Inspire others rather than impression management

Enjoy what you do & let people know about it

Be confident enough to be humble

Engage your personality into everything

Have fun at work every day

Quickly make new people feel like they've known you for years

Be known by many people

Admit when you're wrong,

Be someone whom others "could tell anything"

Carry business cards in your bag, car or wallet

Check your email 3 to 4 times a day

Offer various methods of contact

Greet others

Stop what you're doing to address someone who comes to you

Sit with people you don't know

Do things that "aren't your job"

Share travel plans with people who might need to get a hold of you

Be accessible outside of group situations for people who are shy in front of others

Make every encounter with another person feel valued

Find the answers to questions you don't know instead of "faking it"

Address both trivial and serious problems of people who come to you

Receive criticism without taking it personally

Give criticism without sounding harsh

Listen to other people's viewpoints and ideas, even if you don't agree with them

Maintain openness, even about uncomfortable topics

Keep other people's secrets

Be a boss, friend, co-worker, colleague AND/OR subordinate

Personal warmth is borne out of a free mind that is devoid of jealousy, it is like an attraction that exists in a complete mind.

Understand human weakness and your exposure: Approachable people are honest about their abilities and their shortcomings. Just because they can admit their own faults, they don't have a problem allowing other people to have faults as well.

Keep your lines open with the intention to easily talk with people.

When you enter with a pair of crossed arms it seems suspicious.

If you seem like you're having the time of your life, we will be less likely to want to interrupt it.

It's a temptation, since it makes a woman look less like she's out looking to meet someone.
