Meet Sonye Allanah
Sonye Allanah is a certified etiquette and image consultant with a distinguished career as a diplomat and corporate leader. For over two decades, she served in the Nigerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and as Deputy Director of Protocol to the Presidency, working closely with global dignitaries including Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Charles, and world leaders.
She later transitioned to the private sector, where she spent 14 years as Deputy General Manager of Public and Government Affairs at Total E&P Nigeria Ltd. Today, as Managing Partner at CONSIMA Protocol & Finishing School and a Distinguished Toastmaster, Sonye empowers professionals, diplomats, and organizations to communicate with confidence, lead with elegance, and thrive in global spaces.
It surprises me every time that the place for etiquette is so often overlooked in today’s society. Every time I have the opportunity to teach, I find it gratifying the way young people embrace the knowledge to do things right and to learn how minor adjustments can make a major impact…
