Event Protocol and Diplomacy lay the fundamental foundation for relationships throughout the world.  They are the guiding light on creating a space to build bridges, engage in sensitive conversations, show honors and respect, and make long term connections.  Whether you are setting your grandmother's table or welcoming a national or international head of state, the rules and practices followed set the tone for respect, representation, and response of a relationship.             
Topics covered: Ceremonies, Flags, Culture, Gifts, Ways of Address, Briefing Your Primary, and Order of Precedence
