Louise Mullany

For years, Professor Louise Mullany – author of Polite: The Art of Communication at Home, at Work and in Public, has been examining how politeness rules our day-to-day lives – whether it’s speaking to colleagues about issues at work, dealing with difficult family members or wondering if you should eat the last piece of pie. In this episode of HIF Player, Prof Mullany explains how a better understanding of the rules and norms of politeness can help us in all aspects of our work, leisure and home lives.
