Dress for the Job
I heard that on a podcast yesterday; "Clothes make
the man" Roy Peterkin intoned on a regular basis to we students of
Governor Stirling Senior High Schoool, residents of Swanleigh, as we
donned our grey pants, brown sweaters, blue blazers, clean shirts and
pressed ties. The headmaster Norman MacLeaod was of the same mind.
How true it is.
If you aspire to the next level up, dress like the
guys in the next level up. The CFO probably wears a clean white starched
shirt to work each day, cuff-links, and a muted suit, whose jacket is
always at hand when visitors arrive.
Unless you gyrate on stage and have millions of
tweet-followers, torn jeans and a grungy t-shirt just don't cut in any
more, any place, any time, if you truly want to get ahead.
