As the saying goes, "Professionalism is not the job you do; it's how you do it." Professionalism involves consistently achieving high standards, both visibly and "behind the scenes" – whatever your role or profession. Some sectors, workplaces, or roles have particular "rules" of professionalism. These may be explicit, such as an agreed dress code or a policy for using social media. Other rules and expectations may not be written down. Still, they can be just as important – such as what is regarded as professional behavior at meetings or even how people personalize their desks. It pays to be observant and to ask for clarification if necessary. "Fitting in" is a big part of professionalism, as it's a way to show respect, attention to detail, and a commitment to upholding agreed practices and values.
