LADY'S ONE-DAY INTERNATIONAL ETIQUETTE COURSE IN LONDON
The Lady's One-Day International Etiquette Course in London aims to cultivate cultural awareness and respect when interacting with individuals from diverse nationalities and religions. This comprehensive international etiquette programme provides instruction on effective cross-cultural communication, appropriate attire selection for various social engagements, and the cultivation of confidence and grace necessary to communicate and accept invitations to formal dinners and events.
As global activities resume following the pandemic, customary engagement with individuals from diverse cultures has returned to prominence. Whether embarking on a business trip or leisure travel or extending hospitality to international visitors in the UK, it is advisable and thoughtful to familiarise oneself with the customs and traditions of the destination through acquiring international etiquette skills. For instance, understanding the significance of bowing in Japanese culture or the appropriate way to greet in Middle Eastern countries can greatly enhance your cross-cultural interactions.
Of course, a notable challenge stems from the multicultural nature of many major cities, wherein indigenous populations may be significantly diminished, thus potentially resulting in less overt observance of established norms. Our course addresses this challenge by providing strategies to navigate such diverse environments with respect and understanding.
Etiquette is not just about following conventions, but also about adapting them to specific circumstances. Our International Etiquette Course empowers you with the knowledge to discern which conventions to observe, ensuring you always feel in control and never inadvertently breach social norms.
When hosting foreign guests in the UK, it is important to demonstrate a basic understanding of their home country's customs and to avoid putting them in situations that may conflict with their religious beliefs or make them feel uncomfortable. These considerations will be addressed in our international etiquette course.
Emma Dupont has conducted extensive research on this topic. For this course, predominantly diplomatic guidelines have been followed, as conflicting information on the internet is often prevalent.
