How to use "Tact" in context?
Tact refers to a skillful way of dealing with others, especially in social or business situations. It encompasses everything from small COURTESY gestures to more complicated skills like negotiation. Tactful people are typically goal-oriented, have clear ideas of their own, and are able to convey these to others in a way that is both clear and persuasive.
The key to being a tactful person is to be aware of your surroundings and what others are doing. If you want to get someone to sign a contract, for example, you might start by asking them how they are feeling today.
