Several years ago while visiting a regional branch of Lee Hecht Harrison a global career management services company then-president Stephen Harrison was stopped short by ”Ray ” his COO. ”You didn’t greet the receptionist ” said Ray who went on to explain that ”a receptionist is a corporate concierge.
