Image audit
In today's competitive environment, men and women in business are expected to be polished and skilled in appearance and in business etiquette. While following contemporary codes of dress and business attire, you can adapt your look to suit your corporate position and company profile. Are you portraying the best possible image?
When we first meet someone we tend to make an immediate judgment about that person based on what we see a 'first impression'. Is your dress style signaling success, likeability, confidence and a relaxed style? Your perception of how you look influences your confidence to achieve your goals, which is why it's so important. You owe it to yourself to 'put your best foot forward'. Your total image must give the right signals.
