1 | Why we need rules
They protect the members of a society. They provide security. Many rules have or had an immediate sense. They are also always signs of belonging to a social group and the expression of an inner attitude, namely regard and respect for other people.

2 | What makes for good manners
It depends to some extent on the changing times. Today’s recommendations for style and etiquette depend on the situation and are readily understandable. A person who has a command of good manners can go anywhere. But without warmth and an inner attitude they are mere arrogance.

External appearance is perceived by our limbic system. Everything should fit together. Above all body language, one and the purpose of the encounter should be in agreement. If this is not the case – above all in regard to emotionally coloured messages in the first seconds of an encounter – the purpose is also largely
