Personal image: the most essential
Personal image covers everything related to our appearance, our way of expressing ourselves and our way of relating to the outside world and the reality that surrounds us. It reflects who we are and how willing we are to establish relationships, whether personal or professional.
Taking care of our personal image is a challenge that we must take on, as it allows us to communicate with others in an assertive, direct and pleasant way. In addition, maintaining a good image makes us feel more comfortable and happy with ourselves. And let's not forget that first impressions are what count!
What is personal and corporate image?
In the workplace, first impressions are crucial. Being punctual, organized and disciplined is essential for company supervisors and leaders. Demonstrating good performance, accompanied by productivity and charisma, can boost an employee's growth within a company. Added to this is the way he or she interacts with his or her colleagues and the bonds he or she establishes with his or her work team.
Being positive is a powerful tool you can use to project a good personal and corporate image. And don't underestimate the power of a smile!
How to take care of your personal image?
It is a fact that your clothes and appearance are part of your personal image. How can you take care of them and make a better impression? Here are some key points to consider. If you want to delve deeper into this topic, I invite you to take the Master in Sales that I offer every year. Check my website for the next available date.
- Combine colors: Before getting dressed, choose colors that harmonize with each other.
- Master the textures: Dots, stripes, checks or figures can be combined according to the occasion.
- Take care of your hands: Keep them clean and presentable.
- Cleaning: Make sure your shoes and clothes are spotless.
- Position: Walk upright and look straight ahead.
- Respect and kindness: Be respectful and do not abuse the trust of others. It is always a good idea to smile and greet those you meet by name!
Remember that even if you are at home, it is important to keep things tidy, clean and to take care of your personal belongings. This reflects someone who cares about themselves in their daily life. Ideas flow better when you feel good about yourself and when you treat yourself with dignity. Your quality of life speaks louder than your appearance… or rather, your appearance speaks of your quality of life.
Elements that make up your personal image. Get to know them!
Personal image is not limited to the clothes or accessories we use to look good. There are other aspects that make personal image stand out and be valued in different contexts.
- Good attitude: Attitude is the gateway to any place. Avoid being aggressive or acting in a hurry. Staying calm and transmitting good energy makes people interested in what you say and think. Be authentic, attentive and show interest in the reality of your interlocutor.
- Cordiality: As the old saying goes, “politeness doesn't fight with anyone.” Being kind doesn't cost anything. Remember what I teach in my Master in Sales: “There is no winning in any argument. The only way to win an argument is not to have one.”
- Manners: Wherever you go, say hello when you arrive and goodbye when you leave. Personal image is based on expressing yourself appropriately, and through these details you can determine what a person is like.
