Mastering Networking and Dining Class

Seminar Description

Mastering Networking and Dining is a 4 hour class focusing on how to confidently and successfully navigate social and business events. Networking and Dining often go hand in hand. Learn the ins and outs of the rules of the table and what actually happens in the first 7 seconds of meeting someone.

Remember that awkward feeling ….

• When introducing someone, you totally forgot his or her name.
• Standing at a reception and someone came over to shake your hand…but your hands were full, holding a plate, glass and napkins.
• You found yourself innocently buttering your roll at a business lunch, only to discover that you took it from the bread plate of the person sitting next to you.

The American School of Protocol® can lend a hand.
