Tami developed the IBLCode – International Business Language Code, a practical method for cross-cultural business encounters, with tools tailored to working with many countries.

She trains senior executives, technical teams, and professionals across the defense, medical, high-tech and hospitality industries — giving them clear tools for respectful conduct, precise communication and a deep understanding of local norms.

For years, Tami has guided organizations, delegations and official representatives: government ministries, diplomatic missions, academic faculty, large corporations, government companies and more. She leads workshops on:

• International protocol
• Official ceremonies
• Representative mingling
• Appearing before delegations
• Etiquette in meeting management
• Conduct in interfaith and intercommunity gatherings

Tami leads the Master of Manners approach — the view that sees manners not as “excessive niceness,” but as a language of self-confidence, professionalism, aesthetics and mutual respect. She connects:

• 21st-century codes
• International tradition
• Body language
• Verbal communication
• Image and poise
• The culture of hospitality

The result: smart, at-ease, effortless conduct — the kind that makes people and organizations more admired and appreciated.

• Speech
• Body language
• Appearance

• Manners and communication

In an intimate, informal studio with a relaxed atmosphere and a screen that allows real-time viewing and learning — Tami provides practical tools that transform behavior, presence and self-perception.

Over the years she has written hundreds of articles on table manners, hospitality culture, business conduct, protocol, body language, business presence, communication, cross-cultural etiquette and more. Some appear in books, in the press and on her website, and serve as a sought-after source of knowledge.

Tami believes manners are not “old formality,” but an essential social skill for the digital, fast, noisy and global age. She sees manners as a bridge between people, cultures and generations — and as a force that shapes quality of life, personal success and the atmosphere of a society.
