Dressing for success

Course summary

In the few moments when someone new - a client, a prospective employer or even an employee - sees you for the first time, they will form an opinion of you based on how you look. We may all wish that wasn't the case, and it may seem superficial, but research has shown that in every social and business setting, more than 50 per cent of that first impression is based on how we dress. Dressing for success requires self-knowledge and skill in choosing the right clothes and the right accessories.
