The definition of professionalism according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary is the skill, good judgment, and polite behavior that is expected from a person who is trained to do a job well. I do agree with that definition in some way, but believe that there is alot more to being a professional at your career in life. Professionalism to me is somthing you carry out inside and outside of work. It's the manner in how you act and holding accountability for your actions. It's the ethics that you with hold and maintain. A professional is one who can carry themselves as a proud and respectful individual. Who is honest and trust worthy. They come prepared to their job and are ready to put in the work and can be counted on when there is a problem. Somone who always wants to be there and doesn't let little things throw him off track to do his job. When coming to his job he is well prepared. He comes determine to help others, help the company he is working for, and is proud of the work he has done for the day. A professional to me is someone who has matured and can get along with his co-workers, can take orders when asked to do a task. There is so much to describe as someone who is professional. The best way to sum it all up into words is someone who is dependable, compassionate, willing, prepared, respectful, and has a good code of ethics. Always carry themselves with those morales inside and outside of work.
