Women & Politics Institute: Amb. Capricia Marshall + Betsy Fischer Martin

Join the Women & Politics Institute for a virtual conversation with WPI Executive Director Betsy Fischer Martin and Ambassador Capricia Marshall, former Chief of Protocol of the United States and author of the forthcoming book, Protocol: The Power of Diplomacy and How to Make It Work for You.

Protocol delves into the importance of diplomacy and etiquette in every arena—from the international stage to everyday life. Marshall chronicles her long career working at the highest levels of government, including as chief of protocol for President Barack Obama and as social secretary to President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton. Providing a “master class in soft power,” she shares the personal stories, near-misses and successes from her time in office, illustrating how crucial protocol and diplomacy are and providing “an accessible guide for anyone who wants to be empowered by the tools of diplomacy in work and everyday life.”
