The Protocol in business
The European monarchies have used protocol to direct meetings with relations into good channels for centuries. However, particularly in the Netherlands, protocol is subject to misunderstandings. Protocol is not meant to formalise a meeting unnecessarily. It is in essence a sophisticated method to manage attention quietly.
In that sense, protocol is still rendering good service in the 21st century. For attention is a scarce good. The more careful attention is managed, the more likely it is that the meeting will be successful.
Business meetings
The Protocolbureau’s specialty is facilitating hospitality to VIPs, such as clients, sponsors, speakers or merger partners in view.
How do you organise a meeting for business relations with measurable results? How can you manage to get your employees to devote their attention to the guests, and to each other to a lesser degree at such a meeting? The Protocolbureau’s supports your hospitality activities in a structural manner, which allows them to contribute to your commercial objectives.
The route that is covered in close consultation with the client has the following six spearheads:
- Organising a meeting place.
- A guest list with common grounds.
- Desired attendance.
- Briefing/training of the hosts/hostesses.
- Orchestrating meetings.
- Measurable result.
