Are You Still On Track to a More Professional Image?
Contrary to popular belief, projecting a professional image doesn’t just happen. It is a deliberate decision. The components to a professional image are assessed and the ones that need to be worked on are worked on. One component to projecting a professional image is self confidence. Self confidence comes from knowing who you are and where you are going - and that requires developing a plan. The first part of self confidence, ‘knowing who you are’, sounds like the easy part, but not necessarily, especially when it comes to defining your professional image. There are so many factors to consider. Your work environment influences your professional image; your career goals influences your professional image and your personal style (that’s right, your personal style) influences your professional image. What’s more, and this is a factor that is often neglected, your body shape influences your professional image. The second part to self confidence, ‘ knowing where you are going’, can be tricky and how it influences your professional image is not always clear. If you plan the stages of your career (that means setting some goals), you can make sure your appearance, your professional image, reflects those stages. The general consensus is that you should dress for the job that you want not the one that you have. Knowing where you are going will give you the right professional image for the job that you want. Another component to projecting a professional image is the obvious one; dressing in a way that projects a professional image. Even that can be a challenge, especially if you work in a casual environment. The business casual work environment has caused women’s professional image to really take a hit. Women dressed in casual clothing are not viewed as professional as men who are dressed casually. We have to really monitor our appearance in order to make sure that we are projecting a professional image. One thing that you can do that will always give you a more professional image is add a blazer to your casual outfits. A blazer can add polish to even the most casual outfit. That is just one thing. There are other tweaks that you can make to your wardrobe that can improve your professional image. We have put them in an online/on-demand Image workshop.
