professionalism vs technical skill

I try to convey to all my students that a professional image is just as important if not more important then technical skill.
more and more shops are becoming show places and employees are very much a part of their marketing.
I tell them you can be the most skilled tech in the area but if you dont dress and act the part your oportunities will be limited.

KENNETH,
This is a powerful message to send to students. They need to see that there are two components to career success and they need to be in balance with each other. Their technical skills will not help them if they do not have the soft skills to support them.
