"Business Etiquette 101"

Description:

You only have one chance to make a great first impression and you have a very short time to do so. What are the criteria that all people judge you on during those few seconds? Image, attire, handshaking, body language and voice are all part of “Impression Management.” In this tough job market, proper business etiquette and knowing how to make a great first impression is key in giving you that extra edge that will make you stand out.

PPRA invites all Philadelphia college students, recent graduates and PR practitioners looking to freshen up their business etiquette skills to this special seminar that will feature a presentation by renowned etiquette consultant Gail Madison, as well as an interactive session for students to test their business etiquette skills, plus a networking opportunity with local PR professionals.
