How do you want to be remembered by your family, colleagues, clients, and friends?
Would you like to be perceived as competent, considerate, honest, and respectful—as the type of person others genuinely enjoy being around, want to listen to, want to work with, and is easy to support?
There is an art to living in community, to loving others well, and to respecting others and ourselves—and it all circles back to etiquette.
Meet Alison M. Cheperdak, J.D.
Attorney, Author, Entrepreneur, & Internationally Certified Etiquette Coach.
Hello, I'm Alison! I happily help organizations and people just like you become the most poised, confident, and effective versions of themselves through teaching modern manners and international protocol, among other important soft skills.
In today’s rapidly evolving, increasingly diverse, and dynamic global economy, professional and academic credentials are wonderful and necessary, but they alone are not enough to truly shine.
Educational accolades and career experience will only take you so far. It’s the intern candidate who knows how to write an appropriate thank you note after her interview, the manager who provides thorough performance reviews with clarity and magnanimity, the family member who knows which topics to avoid on Thanksgiving without being boring, and the girlfriend who knows how to support her friends through pregnancy loss.
These are the people we remember, admire, and perhaps regard as exceptional... because they are.
Are You Ready to Shine in Every Social Setting?
