Not just the right fork

Personal Consultations

While taking our course is a significant step in the right direction of building confidence and success, a select group of you will want to go further. Our personal consultations cater to those individuals who demand an unsurpassed level of customization.

We can accompany clients for one or two days to witness personal and professional habits and suggest areas for improvement. Some clients spend a whole day perfecting Western dining skills. Others demand that our team of fashion consultants, hair stylists, and make-up artists create a new personal image. Examples of other popular personal consultation topics include:

• Enhance public speaking skills to exude confidence and achieve success
• Learn Western culture to prepare for college entry or job transfer
• Reinvent wardrobe and develop fashion sense
• Improve interpersonal relationships and dating success

One highlight of our personal consultation service is the invitation of a renowned fashion editor and stylist from New York City to help clients freshen their wardrobes and polish their looks. For over a decade, this fashion consultant has styled the best of young Hollywood - actors, musicians, and many other celebrity personalities. Visiting Asia as many as four times a year, she will work with you on a one-on-one basis to ensure that your style is up-to-date and projects the image that you want.

A personal consultation is a highly-personalized experience with a scope as expansive or as narrow as you want it to be.

Tailor-Made Courses

Confident Employees = Successful Employees = Winning Companies

Our tailor-made courses offer a reliable way for companies and their employees to fit into this simple but important formula. Confidence empowers all workers, not just client-facing staff, to communicate, collaborate, and perform more effectively. We offer solutions to firms of all sizes - a large corporation with its own training and development resources will hire us to teach subject matters that its in-house programs don't cover; a smaller company will appoint us to fulfill all of its training needs, allowing it to focus on its core business.

We can customize a course for you in one of two ways:

• Conduct any of the courses that we offer for your private group; or
• Completely tailor-make a course that fits your exact professional needs. To maximize flexibility, we can customize by subject matter (e.g., presentation skills; food etiquette), geographic location (e.g., city; specific hotel), and style (e.g., lecture; interactive).

From experience, the majority of groups that ask us to conduct tailor-made courses have been corporations or divisions and small teams within corporations. However, tailor-made courses can also add value for groups such as professional associations, school clubs, and government delegations.

English Improvement

Whether we like it or not, English is the international language of business and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. As advances in communication and technology globalize the way we do business, it is more important than ever to project an international image, even if your business primarily serves local or regional communities.

Clients equate poor English with lowly professional image and firms that are "small", both in terms of operations and thinking. How can one take a company seriously when it can't even get its basic English marketing materials right? How likely are you to give business to a supplier when you have a hard time understanding what's written in its proposal? Ironically, so few firms make an effort to improve their English-language branding even though it is one of the easiest and fastest things they can do to distinguish themselves.

Our English improvement services offer a comprehensive set of tools to help individuals and companies grow and develop confidence. They include:

• Assess and revamp existing English-language materials
• Develop a winning English-language marketing strategy
• Edit grammar, spelling, and structure to ensure colloquial flow
• Write copy for taglines, executive summaries, and press releases
• Provide intensive one-on-one oral tutoring based on subject matter (e.g., college entry, job interview, sales pitch)
