COS Internship: Business owner at 360 Insurance
The Colorado Department of Education defines "Professional" using the following descriptors:
time & work management
career literacy
grit and resilience
work ethic; dependable and reliable
My Personal Definition:
Although these are all true indicators of professionalism, I believe professionalism can be summed up to one overarching trait. Dedication. If you want anything bad enough and are dedicated to achieving it the time management, vision for your career, grit, work ethic and all other traits will fall into place.
