I think a handshake's always a good opportunity to establish some dominance with a real 'gripper'. Also, turning your own hand slightly inwards so it's on top is good for establishing who is in charge.
I always offer an open hand to give a firm, manly handshake, but some people grab my fingers and shake them. I hate that. It leaves me wondering if I’ve given the limp wrist, but the more I think about it the more I realise it isn’t my fault; people should wait until they feel the palm of the greeter’s hand against their own before gripping and shaking.
Everyone here does it. Pain in the arse when you're meeting a load of people and everyone shakes each other's hands. Along with business cards here, when meeing clients, customer, suppliers, etc. everyon hands out their business cards first.
