When you are offering your sympathy or condolence-the ‘glove’ handshake is very appropriate in this situation.

When you greet your host and hostess.
While saying ‘goodbye’ taking leave.
Have a firm and not a crushing handshake. A word ofcaution here.
Slide 5:
Please do not shake the other person’s hand off the shoulder socket and also be aware of a person’s physical inability to shake hands firmly.
Don’t hold back. Extend your hands immediately to have a distinct advantage
Slide 6:
Exception to this rule would be, in the social arena, the man waits for the woman to extend her hands first, especially in Europe.
It is considered to be in bad form for the woman not to extend her hand spontaneously.

The socially savvy man knows to wait for the woman to take the initiative.
But if the man holds out his hand first, the woman should take it graciously accompanied by the proper verbal greetings!
Happy handshaking!
