Hear from Us
Etiquette is defined as a traditional set of proprieties executed in both social and professional situations. To some extent, practicing the social graces has become a dying art, an "obsolete" list of rules with seemingly no place in our fast-paced, high-tech world. But the truth remains: Presentation is everything. A sound execution of etiquette indicates an attention to detail, self-awareness and common courtesy—all of which make the difference in whatever you wish to accomplish.
Whether you are a graduate seeking employment, a restaurant or business owner, a senior executive or a foreign executive, The Southern Institute of Etiquette and Protocol offers exceptional interactive programs that break down the nuances of everything from shaking hands to analyzing handwriting, from starting a conversation to closing one. Our certified etiquette consultants are passionate about not only instructing you in the refined art of presentation but also in building the confidence you need to reach new career heights.
