Why Manners

There is a distinct difference between etiquette and manners. Etiquette is described as a set of rules or protocol, defined by culture and society. Manners relates to inter-personal behavior, kindness, compassion and caring about others. However, in order to have positive social interactions and successful business relationships, they must work in tandem.

The benefits of having good manners and proper etiquette are:

• Enriched family relationships
• Likeability as a person
• Successful friendships
• Knowledge and confidence to handle diverse situations outside of the home
• Business acumen
