Business etiquette in Poland

My "business" experience is limited, but a few words about greetings and shaking hands: it seems to me that generally (in social situations, as well) men shake hands more frequently than in North America. A stranger may approach the person you're talking to, and offer his hand to you, as well as your acquaintance. Although one may observe older men kissing women's hands, this is no longer common, and not at all expected. However, many people have told me that a man usually should not extend his hand to a woman unless, of course, she does.

If others on this board know differently, I look forward to reading about it, and other observations about business manners.

This is so well observed.
Yes, I was some 20 years welcome to kiss the woman's hand. Noverdays, most women I know don't like it. Including me. However, it is still expected from a man to open the door for a woman and let hef through first.
Also, I must mentione, since I came back to Poland, I find it very strange that some companies, that called a meeting on their premisses, thid not offer even a tee or coffe. If you own a company an want to welcome clients...this is the way to go.
