The corporate arena has changed tremendously over the past decade and new rules are continuously put in place. One thing that remains constant is the ability to make the best possible first impression in the corporate arena and continue that positive impression throughout a business career, by demonstrating skill and acumen in the art of proper business etiquette and protocol.

    Success in the corporate arena dictates that corporate principals and the people who work for them be well versed and skillful in the art of protocol and etiquette if they are to be successful.

    Testimonials


    "It was so wonderful listening to and learning from you on Tuesday! . You had us all thinking and pondering how we show up for ourselves and for each other!

    Thanks for bringing the protocol, the joy and the laughter!

    Thank you,

    I was so proud to be part of the last workshop you all worked so hard to put together. It was obvious, the time and content, and the way it was presented, that much planning and thoughtfulness was behind each moment.

    Each speaker left me with great ideas, and really inspired me to be more and do more. I could see from the faces of everyone who turned on their cameras that they were engaged, excited, and yearned to continue their search with a little more confidence and tools.

    I am so looking forward to each workshop, as I can tell each subject has already been meticulously planned!!!

    Kudos for an amazing job! Take a bow and let the series begin!!!

    On behalf of St. Francis College, thank you for being a guest presenter for our SFC Scholars. Your insight and advice on careers and best practices for success were well received and greatly appreciated by all.

    Thank you both for all the professional and personal skills I learned throughout this year. Your program is amazing, and I love the opportunities that I have and all the opportunities I will have as a result of all the new skills that I have. I feel better prepared as an individual and leader, and I know these skills will travel with me for my lifetime. I cannot choose one part of the Protocol program that stood out the most. EVERYTHING was great, and I know that I am a better person to have met both of you. Great job, ladies and must success!

    On behalf of the Philadelphia Commercial Development Corporation (PCDC), The City of Philadelphia, and the Philadelphia Commerce Department, I would like to thank you, and your company, Protocol for preparing me for my trade mission to Incheon, Korea.

    The briefing packet, which your company prepared for me, most assuredly enhanced our successful trade mission. By understanding the cultural, historical, and economic tradition of the Korean people, we were able to conduct business, and engage in meaningful interaction more effectively. As we develop international trade relations with other regions of the world, we hope to further utilize Protocol to be our advance agent, interpreter, and social ambassador.

    I can’t imagine you remember me. You were in Indianapolis doing break out sessions and I was so intrigued that I stayed at your table for 2 sessions.

    I had to send this email to tell you that your session was the most authentic and your presentation was elegant, professional, believable, inspiring and long lasting.

    You are a phenomenal speaker and coach and I send lots of love, goodwill, prosperity and success your way. May you find joy in your business and life always.

    I have worked many different jobs and had the opportunity to have job retreats similar to this. However, this experience has been BY FAR the BEST experience ever. The passion behind the goals of Protocol International is EVIDENT! Cheryl, wow! Your simply amazing and I totally understand why Zakia is in the position she is in! She is wonderful!

    Cheryl, it was really nice to have met you on Tuesday at Monique's. Learned some new things from you about etiquette and I appreciate that. Your interactive presentation made the taking in of new ideas fun. Thank you and Be well.
