In a world where digital interactions overshadow real connections, have we forgotten the art of engaging with one another? Dr. Lee explores civility, etiquette, and the mindful rituals of tasting, whether it’s wine, tea, or coffee, as a powerful metaphor for human connection. Discover how small, intentional acts can bridge divides and transform the way we relate to others. Dr. Clinton Lee is a global etiquette and wine expert, a seasoned lecturer, and the author of Master the Art of Manners. His expertise has taken him to prestigious events around the world where he shares insights on cultural intelligence and the power of meaningful human interaction. When he’s not consulting or teaching, he enjoys the simple pleasures of life: good conversation, soulful music, and an intense game of backgammon over a cup of coffee.
