Corporate Etiquette & Protocol

 

Business Etiquette:  How do your employees measure up?

In today’s increasingly global society, technical know-how alone can no longer keep your corporation on the cutting edge.  To stay competitive, that technical know-how must now be supplemented by the professional sophistication that gives company associates the skills they need to work effectively with clients – both overseas and here at home.

But how do you foster business etiquette in your employees?
Boost your staff’s business IQ with The Etiquette School’s hands-on training in effective conversation, networking savvy, dining expertise and the fine art of making favorable first impressions.  Watch employees blossom as they develop self confidence and a world-class presence.  What’s more, you can expect your investment to pay for itself many times over in terms of improved client relationships and a more positive corporate image.
