Choosing the Right Business Etiquette & Protocol Consultant

Corporate Image, Business Etiquette, Professional Diplomacy and Protocol are flooding in today's corporations.  They are the most intrigue workshops for newly hired employees and existing executives.  

We are fully aware that attending these holistic workshops help us improve our personal development, confidence and deal more diplomatically in functional business nuances.  These are soft skills to be acquired for long term, and we want to know the appropriate behavior, say the right thing, speak with good intention, develop a lasting relationship. 

Your company stands apart when your executives know the way to expand goodwill and increase reputation for bigger profit margin.  A good attitude employee is where the corporate culture begins.  Exemplary etiquette training goes hand-in-hand with selecting the right Etiquette & Protocol Consultant. 

Customize a program that is suitable for your company

We understand that different employees require specific area of training, and we adapt this fact by adjusting our style to communicate with them effectively. These employees are your assets and investing on them bring far more return of profits to your initial human capital investment.

Why Etiquette & Protocol training is significant? 

Many schools and universities provide business etiquette workshops before the graduates are deployed to the business world.  They realized that these workshops help their students get a placement at work easily.  Many fresh school leavers would pay a high price to take advantage of the skill because they want to stand out from the pack.  They do not want to waste time getting through interviews but want to nail their dream jobs.  

Choose the right business etiquette & protocol consultant

Choosing the right training consultant and company is important.  Look at the consultant's credential, his or her exposure, experience and background.  Needless to say, we all want to improve ourselves by increasing our learning curves.  Likewise, a consultant is also required to adopt a continuing education to keep up the demand.  Where did he or she received the certification and accreditation from? In short, when you privately pay for your own training, you would want your money to be well invested to get an excellent trainer who equipped with high quality certifications.  

Consultant's Specialty

Every workshop comes with a price and sometime you would not want to compromise a good school for your child, correct?  You would also like to look at the consultants' forte.  What is he or she really good at and why.  Was it due to his or her work experience?  

Quality

We are aware that good looks play an important part.  You do not wish to pay a high price just to take a good look at him or her because of some titles, unless you are planning a beauty competition.  If your objective is to receive a genuine, well invested, nailing business training, then you have to ensure that every employee can bring to the corporate table at the end of the training.

Comparing the price will not do justice

Every consultant is good at specific subject.  Just like a school teacher is specialized in certain area. Taking into consideration, the duration, audiences, objective, cost, Consultant's achievement, education background, work experience and how much time is required for the execution of the training.  Comparing price and taking subjects from this company to expect another consultant to fulfill it for a cheaper price will not do justice to both your participants, consultant and company in long run.  

Knowing what you want versus telling your want

Part of our business is to meet your needs and goals.  There is a difference between your past training experience with that consultant versus who you are engaging now. Should you wish to remain the same, why is there a switch?  Imposing on previous training style to the new working partner make no difference for a change.  Every consultant is adamant to make each training succeed.  They love to see every event fruitful and will do the utmost best ensuring your points are adopted.  

What is holistic and soft skill training?

A holistic training is different from the technical instruction on how to fix an IKEA furniture step by step.  It calls for diplomacy and skips the technicality. It calls for consistency and practices. You can't see scores on paper but you can watch and feel the impact on behaviours.
