Learn Formal British Business Greetings & Introductions That Make an Impact

Speak With Confidence in Any Professional Setting

Many of my students are highly intelligent, well-educated professionals from around the world but struggle with sounding natural, confident, and professional—especially in real-life business situations.

Whether you're applying for a job in an international company, working with native English speakers, or preparing to relocate for work—mastering formal British Business English greetings is essential.

And I’m here to help you do just that.

Why Professional Greetings Matter

In English-speaking environments, first impressions matter.

How you greet someone can immediately shape how you’re perceived—competent, confident, respectful... or unsure, awkward, or unprepared.

Formal British English has its own tone, register, and expressions—especially in the workplace. It's polite, professional, and often more indirect than American English. Learning the right greetings and phrases helps you:

• ✅ Build trust and rapport with colleagues and clients
• ✅ Avoid social or cultural misunderstandings
• ✅ Sound polished and natural in meetings, interviews, and presentations
• ✅ Feel confident speaking spontaneously in any professional setting

Common Formal Business Greetings in British English

Idioms & Colloquial Terms for the Workplace

Even in formal environments, native speakers use idioms naturally. Here are some that are professional but still authentic:

• “Break the ice” – Start a conversation or interaction more easily. "Let’s start with a quick round of introductions to break the ice."
• “On the same page” – In agreement or understanding. "Before we begin, I’d like to ensure we’re all on the same page."
• “Touch base” – Connect briefly, usually to update or check in. "Can we touch base after lunch regarding the proposal?"
• “By the book” – Following rules or protocol. "Our onboarding process is done strictly by the book."
• “In the loop” – Being kept informed. "I’ll make sure you’re kept in the loop about any updates."
