Professional style and its importance
In the week when we lose an icon of style and good taste, let's present some tips for you professional on the subject.
Alignment with the organization
Being part of an organization means being aligned with it in several aspects, one of them is appearance. We are not talking about something purely aesthetic, as one might imagine, when we refer to "appearance" we are talking about how your style can align with the position you hold.
In a first aspect we can mention the way of dressing, hairstyle, way of carrying yourself and way of speaking are all criteria taken into consideration for the image you want to convey, which does not mean loss of visual identity or culture, but alignment with what you want to demonstrate for the position you hold in view of the culture of your company's environment.
Impact on professional evaluation
It is important to note that you will be evaluated by several factors not only by technical competence and formal education. Thus, having an external image of yourself that sells commitment, organization, professionalism and charisma is vital for a good evaluation about you as a professional.
In view of all these aspects as influencers to stand out in the job market in a positive way, it is important to also highlight what can negatively influence: wearing clothes inadequate to what your work environment demands, being with neglected appearance, having limited or repetitive rhetoric, lack of attention to general hygiene. All this builds a negative identity in a job interview or in the workplace.
Market evolution and space for authenticity
The job market today is much more permissive with aesthetics that were once taboo, such as: tattoos, piercings, hairstyles, clothes. However, the way you present yourself makes the professional a symbol of their education and work ethic, and having a more neutral and discreet approach in your style contributes to a more serious image that should be aligned with the business, strategic positions and product of the company.
This thinking extends to ways of acting as well, because style is much more than dressing, your approach in the workplace and way of carrying yourself are completely important complements to your professional characteristics, so it is necessary a social tact for touches with work colleagues, more professional language, personal organization of belongings and work materials etc.
Professional style as personal brand
Understanding everything that makes up exemplary professional style is an essential step to becoming a positive highlight in any area, clothing is the first external contact with those who will work with you in the workplace, your intentions and way of acting are part of it, your identity as a person and as a professional can be different, but this commitment to the image of a collaborator is the soul of professionalism.
