Navigating how to greet people in the business world can be tricky because if you are meeting someone for the first time you really can't be considered friends, so what do you do? If you are a woman, do you kiss your Mexican business colleague on the cheek or just shake hands? It's funny because many Mexicans are used to foreigners being uncomfortable with the "kiss on the cheek" greeting, so they will go ahead and shake your hand before you even have time to overanalyze how to handle the greeting.
