In the U.S., if you are trying to get someone's attention, you would say ma'am or sir. Some people simply say, excuse me.
Under certain circumstances, you should address people by his/her title.
Elected/Appointed officials:
President Bush
Mayor Smith
Judge Jones
Ambassador Kelly
University officials:
Provost James
Dean Dickenson
Professor Thompson
When in doubt, use the person's last name and either Mr. (mister) or Ms. /miz/. If the person perfers a different title, he will tell you.

we address everyone equally. if you wish to approach someone in a business like manner, address a man as sir or a female as
maam
