Professionalism means everything. It’s your currency, your hallmark, and what will ultimately keep you moving up in your career. Your professionalism has to be backed by your actions and your attitude, not just what you say.If you want to be respected and treated professionally, then make sure the way you conduct yourself doesn’t include a bad attitude, negativity, selfishness, or rebellion against the cultural climate. That seems simple enough to avoid, right? I’ll expand on this topic, so you know how to stand out as a team player.
Every workplace has a unique culture — expectations arise from that. Your workplace will have its own set of norms, and part of being professional is following those unwritten rules. Some organizations are more casual, where people can pop into one another’s offices with quick questions. Others have a heavy focus on following protocol for everything from communications to when people take breaks. Falling within the expectations of your company culture shows that you have a respectful attitude. Doing the opposite can make you stand out, but not necessarily in a good way.
Feedback is an important part of learning. Accepting it graciously and gratefully is key to a professional attitude. Whether from a colleague, a supervisor, or a client, feedback is meant to help you do your job better. Even if it is critical, you should avoid taking it personally. You are not your mistakes; use feedback to learn and grow and know that you are gaining valuable experience.
In most workplaces, speaking more formally than you would with friends and relatives is one of the best ways to establish your professional attitude.Taking initiative in the workplace can help establish your professional attitude. Ask your supervisors for ways you can help your colleagues or for additional tasks if you finish your work early. Seek out professional development opportunities and ask your supervisors for additional training.
