Business
Etiquette for Today = Business Intelligence
Impression Management
Have you ever thought about the impression you make
on others? Learn to present yourself with confidence
and authority because research shows that 93% of
what someone remembers after meeting you for the
first time is how you looked and how you behaved,
only 7% is content or what you had to say. Today
in the fiercely competitive business arenas, etiquette
is simply another tool you need. While etiquette
alone won’t get you anywhere, it will give
you that extra edge that will make the difference
between you and another person who is just as smart.
Communication Skills- Networking Savvy and Strategies- Personal and Professional Impression Management- How to Make an Entrance and Work the Room- Handshaking: The Ultimate Greeting- Introducing Yourself and Others- Forms of Address- Eye Contact- Rising to the Occasion- Remembering Names- Conversation Skills- Nonverbal Communications- Business Arena Communications- Business Card Protocol- Dressing for Success- Total Quality in the Business Arena- as well as many other timely tips to help you outclass the competition.
Many companies are “downsizing” which
means that the current employees are more important
than ever in projecting the company’s professional
image. Research shows that most employees do not
possess the skills necessary to take them to executive
levels. These skills, however, are easily learned
through our powerful and interactive seminars in
business etiquette.
Today’s CEO’s equate a firm knowledge
of business etiquette and social skills with business
competence. When researching “Live For Success”,
John Molloy found that ninety-nine percent of executives
agreed that social skills were invaluable for one
to succeed personally and professionally.

in the United States who are not confident in their
table manners. At The Madison School of Etiquette and
Protocol, you will learn to dine like a professional
