BUSINESS DINING ETIQUETTE

Why it matters

When dining out, other people do notice how you conduct yourself at the dinner table and whether you possess good table manners or you lack in what is commonly referred to as dining etiquette. Most people believe they have good table manners and above average dining etiquette skills. However, we have found that most people don't even possess the basics, let alone the finer points. One of the most popular comments that we hear after a dining etiquette seminar is, "I thought my table manners were quite good, but did I ever learn a lot."

Whether you are an executive in need of refining your dining skills and how to host, a sales professional who is constantly entertaining clients, a new graduate having an interview over a meal, or an individual who wants to appear more confident and poised when dining out - This course is for you.
