Virginia et al:

IMHO, if your company wants to send you to a meeting or seminar or
convention (particularly to represent them), it is their responsibility to
provide you with the tools to do that. Business cards are one of those
tools. In the particular case you mention, I feel you should have your own
card, but you might be asked to provide your manager's card as the person
to contact.

To speak to your other issue, I work for a bank, where almost everyone has
a business card. We give them to each other when contacting departments
outside our own.

They're not that expensive! <g>

HTH

Do all technical communicators have business cards? <snip> When I attended
an STC meeting to recruit for an open position, I was told to give out my
director's business card instead. <snip> but I was wondering whether anyone
else had experienced a similar struggle to be recognized as a professional. Any
thoughts on this?
Thanks for your feedback,
Virginia Butler
