BUSINESS ETIQUETTE MASTERY - When Class Is Not in What You Say, but in How You Show Up

You communicate well. But do you have Business Etiquette yet?

Imagine this:

You are sitting across from a partner at a business dinner. Your outfit is fine. Your professional expertise is outstanding. But you don't know which fork and knife to use first. You hand over your business card with one hand. You sit with poor posture all evening.

That deal — no matter how promising — starts to wobble from those seemingly harmless moments.

This is not a distant story. This is the reality for many Vietnamese leaders when stepping into the international business environment.

BUSINESS ETIQUETTE MASTERY – John&Partners

Venue: The Reverie Saigon – 6-star hotel, in the heart of HCMC

Duration: 2 days of training combined with practice

Learning here – not in an ordinary conference room

The Reverie Saigon was not chosen by chance. This is the most prestigious hotel in Vietnam – with Italian interior design from 150-year-old brands, recognized by Forbes and a member of The Leading Hotels of the World.

Our philosophy: you cannot learn how to conduct yourself in a luxurious environment if you have never truly sat in one.

3 hands-on meals – not hospitality, this is the Lab

2 premium lunches at the hotel restaurants

1 European-standard Western fine dining dinner

You don't learn dining etiquette through videos or books. You sit down, pick up your knife and fork, and practice – with direct feedback from experts, in the real setting of a 6-star restaurant.

Personal practice kit – one set for each participant

A complete tableware set. Dress code reference accessories. Props simulating real business situations. Because etiquette must be learned by hand – not just by eye.

2 days – what will you learn?

Day 1 – Presence & Communication:

→ First impressions: 7 seconds decide everything

→ Proper East-West handshake and business card exchange

→ Correct posture for men and women in the workplace

→ How to sit in a car with partners and VIP clients

→ Dress code for every occasion: meeting partners, business dinners, hosting luxury guests

→ Building a consistent personal brand

Day 2 – International business dining:

→ European dining etiquette: knives and forks, course order, wine

→ Asian dining etiquette: Japanese, Chinese, Korean – things you must absolutely never do

→ The art of conversation at the dining table

→ Handling unexpected “dangerous” situations

→ How to work with luxury clients (Luxury Client Protocol)

→ Hands-on fine dining dinner practice

Who is this program for?

Leaders and business owners who regularly meet international partners

Managers aiming for bigger roles

Professionals, consultants, and salespeople who need to build trust from the first meeting

Anyone who wants a personal image worthy of their true capabilities

“In many cases, the successful person is not the most skilled – but the one who earns trust the fastest.”

If you are already good at communication, Business Etiquette is what elevates you from good to excellent in the eyes of international partners.
