Modern-day Executive Finishing School
‘In this life, there are two kinds of Class: First Class or No Class. You must develop the first or you will have to live with the second’
-William Thourlby
In researching his book, ‘Malloy’s Live for Success’, John Malloy found that almost everyone he spoke with agreed that the final indicator of class was the possession of certain social skills. According to the late sage & technocrat, Dr. Gamaliel Onosode, he said ‘To be a top-notch executive, you have to banish the ‘ko-mean’ syndrome; meaning develop skills that sets you above average. The demands placed upon today’s professionals surpass any experienced in the past as the sophisticated professional must know how to distinguish himself or herself from the competition; develop and maintain business protocols, project confidence and authority, and exude savvy and finesse in a multicultural environment. These are the hallmarks of a seasoned executive.
With years of experience in the Nigerian business landscape, Marcforte’s Finishing School curriculum is built and structured to match international standards while putting into perspective our home-grown and indigenous content.
