Disruptive Etiquette embraces the thinking that etiquette is more than learning “which fork to use.”
We utilize our "3-Step Framework", which focuses on personal and professional empowerment through soft skills, social intelligence, and self-awareness.
Our Philosophy

Becoming socially intelligent to make the best decisions consistently in different situations.
02.
Being self-aware of how your actions and behavior affect others and how their actions and behavior affect you.
03.
our 3-Step Framework
A Family Feel
Taking ad hoc professional development courses in a large, cold auditorium or sitting in a Zoom room full of unrelatable strangers.
Focus on Support
Faculty Who Look Like You
Application and Practice
All learning is focused on collective support, encouragement, accountability, and growth among students.
Blanket content that is “hit or miss”, “shot in the dark”,Fun and Interactive Learning - Courses that leverage dedicated, small, and fun coaching groups that leverage exercises, Q&A and engaging discussion for interactive learning
Clear Instruction
Content customized to the specific needs of minority young professionals
Disconnected instructors who “don’t get it” who deliver irrelevant material with no trace of relatability or empathy
Expert professors and subject matter experts with years of specialized study and practice in their particular field who look like you
Being force-fed information and expected to just “get it” after hearing about it once.
Classes that have built-in time for students to ask questions, and to also apply, practice, and polish their skills
Why We Are Different
A competitive, uptight, and tense environment of “crabs in a barrel” where pretentious peers try to outshine the other in an independently divisive way.
A safe environment and friendly, encouraging community of like-minded success-oriented young professionals working together for success.
Overcrowded workshops, bland classes, aimless networking events, or generic “leadership” conferences for checkbox diversity.
Our School is designed specifically for those who are Completely Over:
Dry networking events, surface-level professional relationships, boring workshops that glaze over material, and “quid pro quo” interactions that feel more like transactions.
Topics irrelevant to women and POC young professionals, and have no real-world application.
We stand behind the quality of our classes, courses, and programs.
