Professional Business Attire
First Impressions Count!
Anyone who works his or her way up in a corporation or business knows that personal appearance counts.
A Sloppy Professional gives an unprofessional appearance.
A fresh look consists of Crisp Suit, Clean-shaven, Shinny shoes, clean hair cut and professional attitude.
A Sloppy look consists of Long Hair, un-groomed facial hair, wrinkled clothes, and dull or old shoes.
Visible tattoos and piercings are also no no’s.

Business Ethics
Business Ethics
Many of the well-known companies such as General Electric, Kellogg’s, and John Deer think very highly of business ethics and the way they do business.
These three companies I just mentions have all been in business for a relatively long time.
General Electric- Dates back all the way to 1892, that ‘s117 Years in business.
Kellogg’s- Dates back to 1906, that’s 103 Years in business and still going strong.
John Deer- John Deer prides its self for being in business for 170 years.
When a Business acts ethically it will perform better.
