Reading A How to Cancel an Appointment Politely If you have a busy schedule, chances are you are going to have to eventually cancel an appointment. A cancelled appointment equates with changing another’s schedule. When you cancel an appointment you are affecting the day of those with whom you are cancelling. Your reason may be important (you might have an emergency) it may be valid (conflict) or it may be an oversight (doublebooking). It’s possible, however, your need to cancel may be more selfish. You may have a better offer. That is where etiquette and consideration e in. Reading B How to Cancel an Appointment Politely Your first order of business is to begin your change of plans by calling and cancelling with style. Yes, I did say call. In this day of , having to make an actual phone call might be a bit of a shock. But you are now impinging on someone else’s day. Convenience is no longer about you. You allowed inconvenience to rule you when you decided to cancel the appointment. Now you need to make your decision convenient for the canceled.

If there is something specific you were supposed to talk about you can mention that too. Reading B How to Cancel an Appointment Politely Now that you’ve called, made sure it’s a good time to talk and identified what you are calling about, all that’s left is to simultaneously apologize that you need to cancel, explain what happened (or why you need to cancel) and then reschedule if necessary. Beginning by saying “I’m really sorry, Mary, but I’m going to have to cancel our appointment. You see, I’ve accidentally doublebooked that time and the other appointment involved three other clients.” Let Mary know that you’d like to see her but rescheduling with her, the one person, is easier than affecting three other people’s lives.
