You may know her as Speaker Jane, The Tea Lady, Auntie Janey or even as TikTok sensation @afternoonteajane
but she's been giving engaging, uplifting talks to both social and business groups/conferences for years. Described as a National Treasure, her talks leave the room smiling and with powerful food (or tea) for thought! Within Jane Malyon's afternoon tea etiquette expertise (she's written a best seller and given a TedX on the topic too!) there are multiple memorable metaphors for corporates to improve communication, sales and rapport. You also might get to find out what you should do if you have a cherry stone in your mouth and you're in polite company.....or the correct way to stir your tea!!

For businesses, there's been so much unsettled turbulence in our lives these last few years...plus changes in working from home or back to the office. It's definitely time to introduce the comforting, reassurance that we always used to get (back in the day!) from the Tea Lady's arrival! It's the Keep Calm and Carry On feeling and you don't literally have to have a tea trolley to learn the lessons of nurture ("I've got your favourite cake today"), recognition ("No milk for you as usual?") and rapport-building from teatime traditions. Transfer those niceties of offering, caring, listening, noticing individuals and thanking personally...and you have corporate engagement right there. That equals staff retention, at least 12% more efficiency, improved customer service and organisations that simply work together better. Let's put 'nice' back into business and the TEA into TEAm building!
“Perhaps the most intelligent idea I've heard in quite some time.”
Sandra Nelson
Book Jane for her British keynote talks and topics which are utterly surprising, unique, funny and powerful. Cucumber sandwiches, cake stands and teapots may be involved in the talk, but in reality, this is an inspiring message around internal communication and engagement within organisations and their clients.
Jane is not only a professional business speaker but also the UK's expert on afternoon tea traditions. Etiquette, however, is not just about holding your cup a certain way - it's actually all about kind consideration, engagement and communication. Using the metaphor of teatime manners, your audience will truly learn how to be more internally relatable within their business, in the enjoyable company of Jane - with lots of very British humour (and possibly scones) added in!

"I've heard a lot of speakers and there are just a few I remember. This lady, Jane Malyon, made
a big impression on me at an event where there were other speakers. I personally remember only
HER talk, and to today it is stuck in my mind." Debora Luzi
