Question 1

Who is the Art of Dining masterclass designed for?

Accepted Answer

The session is built for executives and client-facing professionals whose work routinely depends on the business meal — partners at law and consulting firms, leadership teams at professional services organizations, founders who represent a brand in rooms they did not design. It is not etiquette training. The participants are already competent. The session is for people who would like to be deliberate about a part of their work they have been doing on instinct.

Question 2

What is the Art of Dining masterclass?

Accepted Answer

The Art of Dining is an executive masterclass delivered by Yannick Bigourdan for leadership teams and client-facing professionals. It runs as a private working dinner — roughly three hours — at a venue chosen for the cohort. The session reframes business dining as a strategic leadership skill, not a social one. It covers how leaders host, read a room, and represent their brand at the table. A reference document follows. Cohorts are typically partner groups, senior leadership teams, or curated cross-firm rooms.
