Etiquette Workshops
According to three separate research projects by Harvard University,
The Carnegie Foundation and The Stanford Research Institute, success in getting, keeping and advancing in a job depends 85% on people skills and only 15% on technical knowledge and skills.
Manners are powerful.
Whether you are in the lunchroom or the boardroom, manners give you an enormous advantage: you feel good about yourself, respect others and put them at ease. You know what you are doing – and you know that you are doing it right.
