August 2008

DALLAS – The growing demands on rising young professionals is ever increasing in our global economy. The employee that exhibits protocol intelligence is sought after by executives looking to promote leadership within the company and is one of the most valued assets when being considered for a promotion. The Business Etiquette Series will build professional and social savvy for rising executives during seminars held in October.

The objective of these interactive trainings conducted by Melina Kelley, trained and certified protocol advisor, is to enhance the skills necessary to explore new markets, develop opportunities worldwide and master the techniques necessary to outclass the competition; which are all necessary to be a savvy executive.
