Professionalism in the Workplace

How to Conduct Yourself on the Job

What is Professionalism?

This can be defined as an individual's conduct at work.

 

This has nothing to do with either high earnings or having a high level of education, as is generally associated with typical careers like lawyers, Doctors, Engineers etc, who are often called professionals. You will be surprised to find out that some of them sometimes display very little professionalism when it comes to the term itself.

 

It will amaze you to know that many cashiers, maintenance workers, and waitresses can demonstrate a high level of this trait, even though their occupations require minimal training and earn modest earnings.

 

In this part of the world, most people feel they don't need to demonstrate professional behaviour at work, as long as they do their job well, who cares?

News Flash!

Your boss, customers, and co-workers do. They will notice if you lack this quality and it could have severe consequences for your career. To go ahead and undermine the importance of professionalism would be a big mistake, which can affect your chances for advancement or even the ability to keep your job, especially as a newbie.

 

Below are the Dos and Don'ts of professionalism:

Dos and Don’ts of professionalism:

 

1. Make It a Priority to Be on Time

When you arrive late for work or meetings, it gives your boss and co-workers the impression that you don’t care about your job. It’s like saying you don’t value their time.

 

2. Don’t Be a Grump

Leave your bad mood at the door when you come to work. I say wear your work clothes to work and wear your house clothes at home.

 

3. Dress Appropriately

Choose the type of clothing your employer requires. If there isn’t a dress code, pick attire that is the norm for your place of employment.
