Modern Manners and Etiquette In the Office

12/16/13 • 52 min

Whether it's an office of 5 or 500, how you treat people says a lot about what kind of professional you are. Sadly today, not everyone is onboard with treating others properly and spend their day chalking up one unmannerly trait after the other, on their way to the top. Author and manners guru, Richie Frieman aka Modern Manners Guy, has written the book on office place etiquette, from the Cubical Invader, The Boardroom Bully, how NOT to act at an office holiday party, inner office dating, and much, much more. Richie will share his thoughts and ideas on this very important topic.

St. Martin's Press calls Richie Frieman, "A modern day Renaissance man" – an apt description for one of the most diverse and unusual careers in a young man of 34. Richie is an award winning children's book author, illustrator, entrepreneur, former professional wrestler and the host of the popular Modern Manners Guy podcast on the Quick and Dirty Tips network (with 7 million podcast downloads, and counting!).

As Modern Manners Guy, his distinct voice stems from his colorful career history, which includes stints as a professional artist and a professional wrestler. Whether in the boardroom or in the wrestling ring, Richie has seen manners at their best and their most bizarre. Richie's outlook on modern manners is humorous, honest, and above all else, practical. He is routinely featured on FOX News, Huffington Post, Shape Magazine, FHM, Sharp Magazine, Wall Street Journal, Baltimore Sun, and many other media outlets.
