DINING ETIQUETTE
REFINED MANNERS & FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Having good manners is not a gift, it’s a necessity. It will open doors for you that may never have opened. No matter what your background or upbringing you can rise above anything with having good manners. People are attracted to individuals with excellent manners, even if they don’t have impeccable manners themselves, they will start to look up to you and think you are exceptional.
This module will teach you the value of manners, refine what you already know and make you more respectable. Etiquette follows naturally once your foundational skills get refined, creating a baseline for a stable platform in your life. Social etiquette is more important than you may think for building confidence and helping manage situations.
In this module, you will learn proper introductions, handshake, eye contact and body language and how these can affect any interaction. You will learn how to speak with the right tone with clarity, resulting in skills that will make that lasting first impression.
Money can't buy elegance. You can wear the loveliest clothes, but with bad posture and poor poise, you will ruin the view. Bad posture and poise are seen everywhere too often. It can have negative effects on the body over the long term without correction.
This module will teach you how to sit, stand, walk and hold yourself properly.
