RISE AND SHINE WITH KERRI ALTOM

Nobody Cares What Fork You Use, But There is This One Aspect of Etiquette That Always Matters

March 05, 2022 • Season 2 • Episode 21

Modern etiquette can be empowering. Just start with this one rule, and you’re set. The rest- handshakes, eye contact, proper use of utensils- knowing these can boost your confidence and create more ease. But there is this one thing that is always most important.

Skeptical about the role the rules of etiquette have played in women’s lives? You’re not alone. Throughout history emphasizing manners and etiquette have often been a way to keep women marginalized. As women struggle for equality, etiquette seems like more of a burden than a helpmate. Most women have heard phrases like “smile and look pretty”, but that often code for “stay quiet and out of the way.”

All of us in leadership, we activists and change-makers, have to find a way to strike a balance between courtesy and creating meaningful change. But rejecting the formalities that have kept societies stuck in the past doesn’t mean we reject etiquette all together.

Join Kerri and her guest, Jacqueline Whitmore, who explains the new etiquette and the simple guiding rule that will help you release your worries so you can enjoy your engagement with others. Modern etiquette can boost confidence, inspire compassion, and create better relationships as we do our work out in the world.

You can also join Kerri and Jacqueline virtually at the Vancouver Chamber of Commerce’s International Women’s Day Symposium on March 8th, 2022
