A New Look at Dressing for Success
• A visible tattoo can increase your credibility in some jobs.
• Your appearance is a powerful form of business communication.
• 50% of perception is through appearance.
• First impressions are hard to change but easy to manage.
• Don’t let how you look get in the way of your success on the job.

Expectations• What kind of language do most people use in the
organization?

Profession• Are there professional acronyms and jargon that can
impact your message?

Active: The dog bit the man.Passive : The man was bitten by the dog.

• “To table an issue” in the U.S. means to avoid discussing it, in England it means to discuss immediately
• There are also regional differences, a sub sandwich in the U.S. is known as a sub, a hero, a hoagie, a grinder, a cuban or a torpedo

“Mythical” Grammar Rules
• It is OK to end a sentence with a preposition when doing so sounds naturalWhere is this book from? is much better than From where is this
book?
• It is OK to begin sentences with “And” or “But” Most teens enjoy videogames with a moderate level of violence. But
a small, vocal minority strongly advocates a more clean-cut approach.
• It is OK to split infinitives Try to effectively film the next scene is a perfectly acceptable
sentence25
