Professionalism is defined as exhibiting high integrity and respect, acting in a professional manner at all times. This can be portrayed through dress, image, behaviour and manners, as well as knowledge, skills, competencies and abilities. Effective communication is also essential to acting professional.

Perception of professionalism can be easy to attain but hard to uphold when emotions are given free rein. Self-control can help to perpetuate professionalism and professional behaviour in the workplace as individuals have the ability to refrain from reacting to others when challenged, instead opting to exhibit patience and calm in the face of all situations.

In the workplace, professionals have mastered their job skills, and therefore gained self-confidence that is exhibited at all times. Long-term success can be built from professional workplace behaviour, employees and external partners, which is of vital importance to achieving personal and organisation’s objectives.
