I highly endorse Joy Weaver as a professionally certified etiquette and protocol expert, trainer, and speaker. Joy’s sessions are high energy, fun, and filled with valuable information needed by people in all walks of life.

I encourage you to put her timeless techniques into practice and if you do . . . I truly will See You At The Top!


Rick Villarreal

Director of Athletics, University of North Texas

First impressions are extremely important in a job interview, professional encounters and even personal associations. The North Texas Athletic department counts as part of its mission the development and enhancement of the skills required to make a successful initial engagement. Joy Weaver’s sessions covered so many important areas, from greetings to dining, and made a tremendous impact on our student-athletes, and gave them a step up as they enter the job market and life. I highly recommend Joy and the expertise she brings.

Trish Martineck

Vice President and Director of Communication, HKS, Inc

Thank you for presenting at our “Work Strong” event at HKS. Your presentation was excellent. I received numerous phone calls and e-mails touting the benefits of the overall seminar noting specifically your “first impressions,” “boardroom protocol” and “dine like a diplomat” sessions. Thanks for bringing to light, “you don’t know, what you don’t know.”


Dan Sanders

COO, Sprouts Farmers Markets

What a wonderful presentation to our leadership meeting. It was among the highlights of the meeting and we have had nothing but positive feedback from all of those in attendance. We are most grateful for the time you spent with us.

Former President, The Southern Baptist Convention
Senior Pastor, The Cross Church in NW Arkansas

Joy Weaver communicated enthusiastically and effectively to several hundred business leaders in our region. We followed that session with an in-depth time with our Staff Team where she was powerful and greatly received by everyone. If your organization or team is looking for someone to take them to excellence in all things, Joy Weaver can do that successfully. We will have her back one day soon.


Amy Simmons Crafton

Founder and President, AmazingGrace.life

I highly endorse Joy’s programs and boldly declare that every student, whether high school or university level, needs Socially Savvy training and the Socially Savvy book as an ongoing reminder of what they have learned in her sessions.

Joy’s programs teach personal and professional skills in a unique way to help students navigate life on every level from securing a job, climbing the corporate ladder, working effectively with others, building strong relationships, and the list goes on. Students deserve this educational edge to set them up for success in life.


Kelli Lawrence

Women's Director, First Baptist Church Grapevine

Joy Weaver is one of my favorite luncheon speakers of all time.  Through her delightful wit, she presents protocol for ladies that is a must for all ages.  Her story is both encouraging and inspiring. The women of our church family have new desire to reach out even within our own church!

Gregory Pines

Meeting Planner Association

Joy epitomizes the best practices she teaches as a expert. For Joy, the art of protocol is not just a business—it is a way of life that she practices every day. Joy’s style is perfect for the Junior League crowd or the engineers at TI as her method of imparting her knowledge is in a manner that allows the individual their own comfort and style in being a success in their professional and personal interactions.


Greg Hext

CEO, Founder of Chapman, Hext & Co., P.C.

Joy did an excellent job of helping our employees focus on their image and how to present themselves in a variety of business environments. She worked with them on their image, dress, etiquette and presentation. Our employees got a great deal from the presentation and she did a wonderful job of getting them engaged and excited during the presentation and process. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to bring this type of training to their employees or management group.


Nicki Davis

Texas Security Bank

I highly recommend Joy Weaver. She is an expert in her industry and you will walk away with valuable tips you can immediately put into practice. Her book is a resource everyone needs to read—the information will help you in every aspect of your life.


Scott Street

President and CEO, Duncan Regional Hospital

I highly recommend Joy Weaver as an etiquette expert and speaker. Joy has a wealth of information and presents it in a way that captivates and motivates her audience. I thoroughly enjoyed her seminar as well as her book. Her heartfelt presentation really kept us on our toes.


Jenny Darley

MBA Career Management Center, SMU Cox School of Business

Joy’s Dress for Success presentation to our MBA students played a very important role in properly preparing them for successful entry into the business world.


Tim Tunes

International Association of Business Communicators

Joy Weaver’s expertise and skill as a presenter are eclipsed only by her engaging personality. She makes the potentially stuffy subject of etiquette approachable, interesting, and fun. Joy will captivate your audience, whether at a business meeting or a corporate training session. And what she teaches will stick.


Shannon Bettis

Sterling Bank Women’s Business Initiative DFW Metroplex

Joy Weaver personifies the eloquence and professionalism every woman desires to have in protocol! Her personable approach will absolutely capture your attention and challenge you to rise to a higher level on the social etiquette scale. Our members especially enjoy having her very practically written book, Socially Savvy, as a regular personal and professional reference.


Janet Ventura

Chairperson, Sherman Women’s Crisis Center Fundraising Luncheon

Joy is a true treasure! Her energy, enthusiasm, and love for speaking is evident as soon as you meet her. Her message was right on target . . . informative and humorous. Our door is always open to her!


Vickie Henry

Director, Fellowship of Professional Women

Joy’s presentation for Fellowship of Professional Women was extremely informative, entertaining, and inspiring.


Mary Brown

Attitudes & Attire

You are awesome! The ladies loved the presentation, and your topics were perfect for everyone. We all learned something, and we will definitely be “more polished.” I found the concept of being “un-offendable” very interesting and so relevant. I truly appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to share your message with our clients.


Pastor Maury Davis

Senior Pastor, Cornerstone Church, Nashville, Tennessee

Having met Joy Weaver in Dallas, Texas, I invited her to come and speak to both the ladies’ ministry at Cornerstone Church, as well as do a staff training day. I entered into that agreement with great anticipation. The anticipation has turned to astonishment at the reports that I have received from her etiquette training from a biblical perspective to our women’s group that had 680 people in attendance, to her professional training that involved a biblical basis for our staff. I believe the advancement of our people in their personal lives, their social lives, their professional lives, as well as their spiritual lives will bear fruit and that this seminar and staff training time was more than worth the time or the money. Joy Weaver is a delightful person who understands the value of etiquette both spiritually and socially. She is a wonderful woman of God and has become a dear friend to my wife and me.


Dr. David McKinley

Teaching Pastor, Prestonwood Church

Joy Weaver lifts the bar and challenges all of us to live by a higher standard. She adds value to people, purpose to effort, and quality to life. She is positive, poised, and productive. I believe any group or organization will benefit from time invested with Joy. I commend her with every confidence of progress and greater success.


Beverly Dillow

Director, Women’s Ministry, Kelview Heights Baptist Church, Midland, Texas

What a treat it was to have Joy Weaver at our Holiday In-Style at Kelview Heights Baptist. Joy not only shared information on social etiquette in a fun interactive way, but her testimony was moving as well. Joy is someone that will encourage and stir your ladies to be a woman of grace and beauty as they pursue being a woman after God’s own heart. Joy is what she represents—style and grace with a heart for God. Our ladies are still talking about her and hoping she will be back soon.


Cheryl Davenport

Women’s Ministry, Plymouth Park Baptist Church

Joy’s presentation was high energy and fun, and we are still talking about the social skills that she shared with us at our ladies retreat. Her beautiful spirit and charming personality light up the room whenever she steps on the stage.


Sallie Sweenie

Grace Community Fellowship

I continue to hear great reports from your day in Brenham. I was really encouraged by the questions and the response from the ladies. It is a much needed teaching for today, and again I say, you have the anointing to deliver it. Thank you again so very much for coming to us and blessing us with a message (teaching) for us and generations to come!


Chrissie Dunham

Director, Women’s Ministry, Prestonwood Dallas

Joy’s name is perfect her style and presentation. She brought joy to our Christmas event! She polished our women with party savvy and taught them how to be a socially savvy in all situations. I see women putting into practice the things that we learned that night. I will definitely have her back to speak to our women again!


Ida A. Gephart

Director, The Plano Symphony Debutante Program

Joy facilitated a correspondence and social etiquette session for our Plano Symphony Debutante class. She was energetic, wonderfully entertaining, and very informative. It’s rare to capture the attention of high school juniors, but Joy kept them involved every minute. The debs learned valuable etiquette tips that will serve them well when they go to college and subsequently enter the business world. Thank you, Joy!


Jan Gibbons

Home School Parent

I home school our daughter, and last year my daughter and I decided to customize our health curriculum to include some training regarding manners. I found Joy’s book and presented it to my daughter, Meredith, and we both decided that it would be a good choice. We both read it and enjoyed it as it addressed, concisely, various situations (social and corporate) and the protocol for each. I had looked for etiquette books before, and my kids had felt they were outdated and stiff. Your book was fresh and highly applicable. Again, thanks for writing such a timely book.


Cindy Bruner

Heart of Dallas, National Charity League Chapter, Dallas, Texas

Thank you so much for speaking to our Heart of Dallas NCL Chapter yesterday. I am getting great feedback from mothers and daughters! My daughter is a pretty tough sell and she thought your presentation was one of the best we’ve ever had. Thank you. I think I got a few points in her book for having secured you as the speaker (believe me, credit helps with a teenage daughter!).

 

Lisa Zarda

Executive Director, United States Swim School Association

Joy was such a pleasure to work with in planning our Spring Workshop. She brought a great energy and was very responsive and professional. Joy was accommodating to our requests, technical difficulties and last minute changes. A true professional! Thank you Joy for sharing this valuable information with our members to help them polish their diamond to shine like a star!
