San Francisco 49er VERNON DAVIS understands,

“It’s not about me, it’s about the team!”

Vernon believes to be a good leader, you must be a servant leader. Go Vernon!

Read about Vernon’s painting with etiquette as the inspiration:

 SF 49er Vernon Davis Art of Etiquette

It does not matter what university you graduated from, what degree you earned or how much money you make, or what NFL team you play for; if you are rude, PEOPLE WILL NOT LIKE YOU! Here is the dilemma, we do business with people we like! We hire people we like. We buy from people we like. We marry people we like.

Your professional and personal life will be severely damaged if you do not know and practice the art of etiquette. Is it really that big of a deal? Yes, etiquette is a BIG DEAL.

Are you a little unsure when it comes to your etiquette skills? Are you uncomfortable when shaking someone’s hand? Are you unwittingly making a faux pas when introducing people? Is your lack of sophistication showing when you are dining with a client? A fortune 500 executive once exclaimed, “If you don’t know basic table manners, what do you know?” Your entire education is called into question. Email me today, I can help you!

Holly-

Thanks again for providing your expertise to our students the other evening. Many remarked that your program was one of the better ones and more useful ones they have attended during their time at Santa Clara. I think that many of the skills and tips you provided will be remembered in the dinners and meetings that many of our students have in the future.

Thanks again-

Dan Schniedermeier Area Coordinator, Office of Residence Life at Santa Clara University

“The only reason to give a speech is to change the world.” –Nick Morgan

Nick Morgan’s quote was probably not what you were expecting when you clicked on an “etiquette” website. I am an Etiquette Coach, but first I am a Public Speaking Coach. I do believe the only reason to give a speech is to change the world. The power of public speaking is enormous. Daniel Webster said, “If all my possessions and powers were to be taken from me with one exception, I would choose to keep the power of speech, for by it I could recover all the rest.”

With this said, I am creating a Public Speaking Workbook, as well as an Etiquette & Life Skills Workbooks.

What are people saying about Holly’s seminars?

The Successful Interview: “It was EXCELLENT! Holly touched upon some basics, but also brought up a number of more subtle points that will help me be really polished during and interview. Also, Holly is very entertaining and engaging. The time flew by.”

“Loved how Holly inserted lots of humor about a nail biting subject that creates lots of anxiety for people. Holly relaxed her audience through humor, they were more able to hear her message.”

“She’s delightful to listen to. The content was excellent and the handout will be very valuable to people.”

“Wow Holly! I was really impressed with the high level of professionalism in your etiquette lecture. You were really entertaining… and also informative. I learned a lot about meal manners. Seal the deal at your next meal!
