What we love most about The Dapper Diplomat’s modern etiquette training is that his past professional experience is directly in five-star hotels. He understands our clientele, our team, and our guest interactions. It was easy for him to create a lesson plan based on the reality of our day-to-day guest interactions and the required skills needed even for our already well-polished team.

Our promise

Client Code

 

Platinum Rule over Golden Rule
It’s not about us, it’s about you. Our approach to modern etiquette gives you real life how-tos for daily living. 

Clarity over Confusion
When you name it, you can tame it. You’ll learn how to identify your challenge and how to face it head on.

Confidence over Fear
If you have the map, you can start the journey. Chart a course knowing you’re on the right path.

 
Be early. By scoping out the bar, tipping out your bartender ahead of time, and selecting the perfect table, you set up your business meeting or date for success.

YOur Story 

 

You’ve made it. You’ve achieved your goals by every measure the world has set for you, but something doesn’t feel quite right. It’s hard to feel comfortable in your own success.

The rise to the top was easy, but staying at the top is challenging. Now, the difference between a good and bad presentation is a million dollars. A botched client dinner isn’t just about one sale, it’s about a lifetime of sales. Showing up in formal when the invite reads black tie could get you turned away from a crucial networking event. Welcome to the world of bigger consequences.

Like you, The Dapper Diplomat understands how standing out from the crowd can be a daunting experience. Where do you start? What is the fastest and most painless way forward? How do you sift through all of the choices that are ahead?

Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Your guide has arrived. We will hand you the map to the road of self confidence and show you the way to outclass the competition. Are you ready to get started?
