Harmless flirting…?

Do YOU know an office flirt?

We all do it, according to the experts – usually to get our own way.

Apart from advancing your career it can achieve more simple results like getting the coffee made.

It can also secure information from colleagues. Flattery can get you everywhere.

Not flirting might hold your career back. But the situation can spin out of control and people stop speaking to each other.

On the other hand it can also undermine professional status – or become a disciplinary offence.

Go into (or wait outside!) some big offices in your town to see what the secretaries think, then question the men to see if they’ve ever succumbed.

And just what is flirting?
