Many things behave professionally. Most people can actively recognize in others, but find it very difficult to define professionalism or lack of it, model, or if. For their own behavior
Thus, exactly what we break with professionalism.
Think of the people you most respect, because they are the consummate professional. Can you find the items that they identify so well done?
I have this question for many groups of people, and the responses have included the following:
* A good model for others, including their behavior, attitudes and relationships
* Good Time Keepers - always in time to set time well
* Dresses according to the role
* Talk. In a way that is tailored to each different audience without condescension or put people
* Competent about work, organization, etc.
* Good with people
* Effective communication, regardless of the circumstances - Active Listening
* Manages their time well
* Works well under pressure
* Money deadlines
* Prioritize effectively - is ready in the time and effort to get things done, but also manages to have a reasonable work-life balance
* Be responsible and what they leave the responsibility for what they do and say, and reversed
Look deeper into the issue of professionalism and you realize that professionalism includes all of these strands above but also do much more.
Those who are very professional, show a rounded personality. You are able to act as a good model for their peers. You have the option to take the corners, and are consistent with other, like always, regardless of their personal situation or problems too. You never take their frustrations on others.
The experienced and professional behavior appropriate in all situations:
You know when it is appropriate, a laugh over coffee and when have formally restrained. You are able to conduct effective meetings. They know when to speak and when you bite your tongue. You do not feel the need to see, always be right, or stand on their dignity. You are ready to play the long game and wait for the time and experience to prove their point. Do not dodge the questions, but without aggression or anger. You can always say, hand on heart, "I expect high standards from my team and I show the same high standards at all times."
The consummate professional is a generosity of spirit, it is not necessary for your own ego on the stage, they can credit where it is deserved to take.
A professional is open to other people's opinion and the possibility that there be a better way. They make decisions based on the best interests of the organization. They are fair and impartial to all people, even those who do not particularly like. The professional evaluates its own performance, has high expectations of themselves and others, and is constantly striving to improve.
Same professionals see them as part of the solution and not the problem.
If you want to be successful in any business, you have to demonstrate a reasonable degree of professionalism. If you want to promote in the future are beginning to show that you have to fulfill the potential of this role. I just want to work, title, status, and financial reward just is not enough.
Show your commitment, your ability to start with the goods, others to notice and be clearly visible when you go for an internal promotion or need a reference for external funding.
You also get a huge amount of personal satisfaction of knowing that you have what it takes to be a great professional.
