With a resurgence of interest in traditional values, more and more educators, parents, communities, and businesses recognize that civility is invaluable. There is a high demand for professional etiquette consultants with credible training and experience.

Why is etiquette and civility training important?

• Social IQ - that is, having an understanding of what behaviour is expected and respected in any situation can increase confidence significantly (for children as well as adults).
• Studies suggest that professional success is directly related to a person’s Social Quotient - a combination of social skills, people skills and the ability to get along with others.
• In a world where things change constantly; demographics, technology, and career profiles, core values - integrity, courtesy, sincerity, kindness, are still essential socially and culturally to building long-term personal and professional relationships.

The Civility Group Inc. recognizes that given the necessary knowledge, support, and proven business strategies, many individuals with life - experience, or academic histories, and the passion to operate their own business, will succeed.
