WHAT PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING
“This was a very useful training - not just for my job but for my career.”
“I strongly believe the skills and knowledge acquired through this training can be transferred to any working environment whether it be related to co-workers, external customers, competitors, authority figures within or outside of an organization, etc.”
“It was interesting that the training was relevant to all of my life and important relationships, both at work and home. I learned a lot about myself, and especially that I can interact more effectively with others.”
“I'm no longer hesitant to address an issue knowing now how to better approach someone to discuss. I understand better how my actions can affect not only the current situation but possibly future ones as well. Also, it is important to treat everyone you deal with as you would a customer - internal and external.”
“I am now more aware of different co-worker personality types, the importance of open communication within my department, and providing a leadership role within my department."

WHAT HR DIRECTORS ARE SAYING
“(The instructor) has a gift for not only creating a strong agenda and program, but being able to step outside of the course to address a question or challenge her audience. Often we found that these side conversations actively engaged our trainees and brought new and deeper understanding of the topics.”
“It was inspiring to watch (the instructor) build a relationship with the 10 – 12 complete strangers sitting around her who soon opened up with their comments and innermost thoughts about workplace relationships, trust, respect, leadership ~ topics that we wanted to address but often find hard to discuss candidly in front of others.”
“Our employees found Ms. Pejic to be a warm and engaging person, someone whom quickly earned their confidence and respect. I highly endorse The Etiquette Academy as a valued training partner and Ms. Pejic as a very professional and talented facilitator.”

WHY INVEST IN EMPLOYEE TRAINING PROGRAMS?
INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY: Investing in employees' professional development is vital in helping them grow their potential and increase their productivity. “It is widely projected that replacing an $8 per hour employee can cost a company upwards of $3500” (Boardman O. (2013) Companies Increase Profits and Productivity with Employee Training Programs. prweb.com).
EMPLOYEE RETENTION: Supporting and building a healthy office culture leads to increased employee satisfaction, which ultimately results in a decrease in turnover. At the beginning of 2013, Forbes Magazine estimated that the average length of time that an employee remains with a company is less than five years. As most business leaders know, high turnover is costly.
TEAM MOTIVATION: Professional educational programs are instrumental in keeping teams and individuals motivated, focused, and consistently advancing.
