"Nowadays, etiquette is defined more by common courtesy, by showing small kindnesses to your fellow human beings during the course of everyday life."

THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan offers a comprehensive program of corporate etiquette and international protocol seminars, social etiquette training for adults, and children's etiquette instruction. We conduct our life-changing, confidence-building leadership and life-skills programs for corporations, universities , public and private schools, and individuals of all ages.

THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan was founded by Patricia Napier-Fitzpatrick. Ms. Napier-Fitzpatrick is a nationally-recognized etiquette expert. She has been featured in Business Week, the New York Post, the New York Daily News,Time Out New York, am New York, as well as other publications. She has appeared on CNN, WNBC, WABC, and WCBS; and, she has participated in special BBC and NPR radio programs. 

Ms. Napier-Fitzpatrick founded THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan to help foster the ideals of proper etiquette, good manners, and civil behavior. "We are not free to merely act as we please; but we must act with mutual consideration, as befits our interdependence," says Dorothea Johnson, founder of The Protocol School of Washington. This is the central role of etiquette in human life. When one comes to understand that when we learn to respect others, that respect is returned to us in kind. This fundamental "consideration," or civility, functions not only as its own reward, but it also opens one up to many more possibilities which lead to success.

In today's global business environment, as well as today's culturally diverse and multigenerational workplace, individuals who know the rules of business etiquette and international protocol, and are able to handle social situations with poise and grace, are more likely to "get it right" and be successful in their endeavors. Our mission is to provide universally-accepted contemporary protocol and etiquette trainings in the highest professional manner.

Let THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan provide you with the etiquette and protocol knowledge and polished social skills necessary to help you achieve your goals for yourself and the corporation you represent, and to outclass the competition!
