Let's face it -- today's boys grew up in a different world than their parents. During the time we were growing up, etiquette seemed less important than it did for previous generations, so we either never received etiquette instruction or ignored it. Only now are we realizing the error of our ways.
To make matters worse, we have two types of etiquette to deal with: Social and Business.
When you eat out, what's the proper way to eat bread? Spaghetti? Should you order a drink at lunch if the boss does? Should you open a door for the new female executive? Do you open a door for the boss' wife? Must you wear hose? Just as we get the questions answered, more appear. That's because business etiquette is based on a different code of conduct than social etiquette and changes as business changes. Social etiquette changes much more slowly, but changes nonetheless.
The NGI Finishing School can help you fill in the blanks with business training for professionals and social etiquette for a new millennium.
The Art of Etiquette For Young Men offers boys an opportunity to learn the social skills, personal style and etiquette that can help them to become confident, self assured young men.
During our course young men will learn about personal style and grooming, the importance of a handshake, introductions and conversation. The Art of Etiquette for Young Men also teaches telephone manners, table manners and other simple courtesies which make every boy a gentleman. The course concludes with a five-course dinner at a prominent restaurant where the young men put their manners into motion.
