Your choice of words can make a big difference, too. For example, if you have not heard what a caller5, it is much more pol ite to say “I’m sorry. Could you say that again, please?”6to simply say “What?”.
Similarly, if a caller asks to speak to someone, don’t just say“yes”or“no”. If the person is7, say that you will put the caller through to them. If they are unavailable, 8where they are, and then take a message.
