Have fun and learn lifelong skills!

Have you ever:

  • Tried to shake someone's hand while juggling a plate and a glass?
  • Fumbled when introducing yourself to someone you'd like to impress?
  • Been stymied by which fork to use at a fancy meal?
  • Wondered how to graciously end a conversation that's gone far too long?

To succeed in this very competitive environment it’s crucial that professionals have not only strong technical skills but polished soft skills as well. In fact, according to a Harvard University study, statistics show that 85% of your workplace success is due to your personal skills.

 

Guest Speaker:  Mary Mitchell, President, The Mitchell Organization aka "Ms. Demeanor"

At The Mitchell Organization we have built a global training and consulting practice on the core belief that etiquette is the foundation of effective professional behavior, leadership development, and enhanced customer service.

If you think etiquette is irrelevant, think again.  Social etiquette helps grease the skids of life.  Business etiquette helps grease the wheels of commerce.
