Dancing Argentine tango, as well as concluding contracts or negotiating with clients and business partners, you need to be able to show gratitude. Superfluous words and even more ingratiating themselves will be completely inappropriate both in the first and in the second case. By learning dance etiquette, you can also find successful behaviors for your daily and business life.
The dance is often not as pleasant as we would like it to be. Most often we are talking about cases when people are just starting to learn Argentine tango. It is very important to be attentive to newbies and to strive to hone your skills yourself. A good dancer, like a good businessman, must understand how much self-confidence means. Sometimes a person should be thanked for the fact that he tried, and next time he will put in even more effort. That is why you should not give up dancing with a person, even if he does not succeed in everything, or drive out a subordinate or business partner if you don’t like something. Remember that in both cases, you can seriously offend the other person.
An excellent "thank you" for your efforts in Argentine tango and in business - this is the desire to hide the mistakes of a partner. During trainings, you will learn not only to dance beautifully, but also to be patient with other people's mistakes.
One of the worst punishments for dancers is the sudden interruption of the dance and the departure of the partner in the middle of the melody. This demonstrates not only to the couple, but to everyone around them that the one they leave from does not know how to dance the Argentine tango at all and only causes problems. So it is in business: interrupting an employee's presentation, refusing to listen to a subordinate, colleague or business partner, you thereby not only do not say thank you, but also offend. Through learning Argentine tango, you will learn to be more forgiving, to help a person correct his mistakes, and therefore, to increase his self-confidence, while finding a wonderful partner.
In Argentine tango, you can say thank you with a smile or a look with an encouraging touch. You can say politely: "Thank you." However, a compliment is often an even more appropriate option. You can tell your partner: “It was very beautiful”, “Nice to dance with you”, “Wonderful dance”, “You are lovely”. Correctly chosen compliments will become an excellent gratitude in business: "You did an excellent job with the task", "Your idea is very interesting", "It was nice to discuss it with you", "I like your approach to business." Learn to highlight the strengths of a person and draw their attention to them so that communication is easier and mutually beneficial. Undoubtedly, this experience will come in handy in real life.
It can be useful for a dancer to remember his first steps in Argentine tango in order to understand that awkwardness and mistakes are completely forgivable and correctable if you treat them correctly. And a well-chosen, short "thank you" will be a truly invaluable compliment for a beginner.
