how do i act more proffessional in the office?

Answer 1

Gossiping can get you into big trouble! You never know who's listening... and how your words can be misunderstood or misinterpreted.

Don't dress provocatively.

Do what's expected of you and go the extra mile without being asked. If you think you know what the next step is that will be asked of you, do it without asking. It will be noticed!

Double check your work before turning it in... mistakes on a regular basis will also be noticed and will NOT get you the promotion.

Make sure that you pick your work friends carefully... being on the side of constant controversy can only hurt your career.

In History class many years ago, we learned an axiom that I've always tried to live by and has never steered me wrong. It goes something like this (I can't remember the exact words at this point, but this is the jist):
"Find the person that you admire (and others do too) and that is successful and emulate them."
In other words, find the person(s) that you admire and has good, positive traits and try you best to act like them. After a while it won't be an act, and you'll start to achieve good things. You might find positive traits in more than one person and roll them into your personality.

At the same time, pay attention to what's going on around you and the people who are NOT successful, figure out why, and make sure that you do NOT do those things.

Good luck, and don't stress too much.

Answer 2

Dress professionally no matter what the other people wear. If the dress code is casual still do not wear worn out looking jeans or anything that makes you look sloppy or unkempt. Keep out of gossip and don't get involved with any disgruntled employees. Do not get romantically involved with anyone at the office. Be punctual and go above and beyond to show that you are a self starter and an over achiever.

Answer 3

Always dress appropriatley. No revealing clothes!

Use good manners.

Don't air your dirty laundry. Share personal problems with close friends outside of the workplace or your family. When you share with others at work, inevitably it will make the rounds of the company and you will become the object of much conversation.

Do your work to the best of your ability and meet all deadlines.

Don't date where you work. EVERYONE will know or think they know about your love life. That alone will kill a carefully prepared professional image.

Be kind and gracious. People will always remember that about you.

Take every opportunity to learn more about your field or related areas.

First you need to know your job well. If you do not know much about your job, forget about being professional in your field.

Look is also important. Look smart if you are a male, and elegant if you are female.
