How should you approach an introduction to a dignitary?

When introducing a dignitary, it is proper etiquette to introduce the dignitary first. This approach shows respect for their position and acknowledges their status. The formal introduction helps to set a tone of respect and appreciation for the dignitary’s presence.

In professional and formal settings, highlighting the dignitary first emphasizes their significance and allows them to be recognized by others present. This practice aligns with the customs of courtesy and decorum, which are essential in JROTC and similar contexts where protocol plays an important role.

Introduction formats typically go from the higher-ranking or more important person to the lower-ranking individual, ensuring that individuals receive proper recognition based on their roles and positions. Thus, introducing the dignitary first is not only a sign of respect but also an adherence to established etiquette in formal communications.
