You may wonder if anyone will even notice if you don’t demonstrate professional behavior at work. As long as you do your job well, who cares? It turns out your boss, customers, and co-workers do. They will notice if you lack this quality and it could have severe results for your career. To be a professional you need to do yourself “when in Rome, Do as the Romans do”.
Follow this:
Dress Appropriately
Whether you have to dress up for work or you can wear casual clothes, your appearance should always be clean and neat.
Watch Your Mouth
Swearing, cursing, teasing or cussing whatever you call, it has no place in most workplaces. Unless you know it is okay in yours. Here’s a good rule of thumb to follow: If you wouldn’t say it to your grandmother, don’t say it at work.
Don’t Hide From Your Mistakes
As hard as it may be to do, own your mistakes and then do your best to correct them. Make sure you don’t make the same one twice. Don’t blame others for your error. Admit your mistakes and try to do better.
Don’t Lie
Dishonesty always makes you look bad, whether it’s lying on your resume or calling in sick when you aren’t. A true professional is always upfront. If you are unqualified for the job, you have two choices, don’t apply for it at all or submit an application that reflects your real skills.
Be on Time
Whether it’s for the start of your workday, a meeting, or a project deadline, being on time (or even early) is a great way to act professional in the workplace. It will get you noticed, too. Heavy traffic or busy or you need to hand in your work, I get it and I’ve definitely been there before, but it’s important not to make a habit out of always being late or past deadline.
To be a professional at the workplace, you need to be on time, don’t lie, admit your mistakes, watch your mouth and dress appropriately.
