Well dressed staff taken more seriously at work?

Yes, because that what it seems or rather is... uhh..ohhk

I would say rather it is, because those people are serious towards their jobs and also that they respect to the SOP's of their firm.

And above all one's attire can effect the mentality of that person and opposite person. :)

Well, Indians in general (both rich and poor) would always like to look like a pig by dressing shabbily. Their excuse for this is "poverty, to look humble etc". Then, these people pay 100 to 200 rupees to go to a movie theater to watch Indian movies.....for what?.... to see the people (stars) on screen who have dressed up properly....to see how indians look when they have dressed properly!

Yes i thing it is necessary to be well dressed in office...

Psychologically a well dressed person is considered as confident.  A confident person delivers what he is expected of.  He/she likes to get the attention of peers and persons around.  Since he/she is getting attention of others , he naturally try to give his best in working also.

Thanks Kirti for some what interesting topic, I would like to say from my way of thinking that those who are spending some time to think about what dress I would wear tomorrow  will be more serious in the work. Actually I was thinking about creating a debate to know what is the dress sence in India as I had spend most of my proffessional life out side and in India I am seeing that a lot of proffessionals are coming in Tees and Jeans in all days which I am not familiar with......... 

Yes, I agree that dressing code should be neat.It will  help to create positive impression. 

The dressing sense is very important factor to be considered. It gives good turn out and personality when men/women are well dressed. It enhances the confidence level in performing the assignment. Moreover it signals that somebody is watching and so the well dressed people will concentrate on their work. But on the contrary, there is no use of well dressed when they have not delivered in their assignment.

Thanks for the referral Mr.Malladi Madhukumar.

Well dress, gentle talk, good behavior etc. are the reflection of one’s mind. So keep it up!

Dress gives confidence, it improves image.It imbibes necessary seriousness in work. it gives co workers extera energy. Well dressed and well groomed person can give positive vibrations into work.

U may impress people around by :

-- dress

-- personality

-- work-knowledge etc.

Here dress is placed in the first. It is true that "only dress may not do the tricks" but dress comes ahead of all.

THANK YOU KIRTI.

A PERSON DRESSING WELL INDICATES HIS INTENTION TO BE NEAT,ATTRACTS THE ATTENTION OF EVERYONE,IMPRESSES PEOPLE.NOT ONLY IN DRESS BUT ALSO IN EVERYTHING.SIMPLE LOGIC IS,IF A PERSON IS NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF,PROJECTING HIMSELF, MAY NOT HAVE THE INCLINATION TO BE SO IN OTHER ASPECTS ALSO.HA NEATLY DRESSED PERSON ALSO PASSES ON A POSITIVE VIBRATION TO OTHERS WHEREVER HE GOES.

YES, Well dressed people/staff is taken more seriouslyat work. But if he fails to deliver later on the perception. Although coceptually if a man is well dressed its accepted that he will be well managed also and any one working in a system never fails.

This is what I have observed.

it shows the sincerity and dedication towards your work,a person who's dressed well has a confidence which inturn helps for a good performance.they are also taken seriously by the person who meets him first. as first impression is the last impression....

no hesitation

It is a sign of being sincere, organised and dedicated to your work. If the person does not like the place of his work, he will start taking it lightly

I PERSONALLY FEEL DRESSING IS IMPORTANT IN PRESENT DAY WORLD AND IN BUSINESS VENTURE IT IS IMPORTANT.

Any one decently dressed for the job would be taken seriously. If a person in a job profile where wearing a suit, tie, etc., is considered a must, but is wearing just a shirt and trouser he would be taken lightly, how much ever important he is. In the same way a peon or an office assistant must be dressed like one and if he is given a suit, tie, shoe, etc., not only he become a laughing stock, but so would his boss and company. A well dressed person is almost always surrounded by an invisible aura of "Confidence". 

The Judge must dress as a Judge does. This would bring respect not only to the position but also the person. Likewise a Court "Dabali" must be dressed like a court "Dabali" and not like a lay person. Only then (when the Judge and "Dabali" are dressed appropriately) people would rise and stand when the Judge arrives whenever the "Dabali" announces the Judge's arrival. 

And then geographical location also counts. Saree in south Asia is very fashionable and looks very decent and makes the wearer very pretty. That's why in many companies, especially star Hotels, front office staff wear sarees. Many south Asian women would not look good or act gracefully in a frock or skirt dress. 

Hence, the right dress for the individual as per his/her job profile would definitely bring respect to the work he/she does and thus they would be taken seriously. 

In Tamil they say "Aal paadhi Aadi Paadhi" meaning to say that a person (his ability, qualification, background, status, etc.) is only half and the other half is reflected in his appropriate dressing.  

I am in total agreement with Kirti on this. As managers of MNC we used to be taught how to dress as Managers.

Hey guys if you look back and see you must have come through such cases in your place or at any other place.

Dress for the  job is more appropriate. Like Doctors/nurse, Engineers/techncians, Lawyers/judges, swamiji's/political leaders. Its more convenient to work with & easy to identify also. In certain countries, it is a regulation that the employee need to wear a particular dress.What matter is that the dress need to be neat & clean and hygenic one.Ofcourse, what you wear need to be presentable. You can also understand that the Dress Makes Half the man.We can not generalise that well dressed man/woman does perform well. They are liked by all & its a quality of living.

Thanks Kriti for inviting me. 

The first look at a man/woman is her appearence which is through dressing.  We, majority of times decide upon a person by seeing his clothes and first impression is created.  I feel it is very important that one should dress tastefully (i do not mean fashionable) as per the occassion.  This shows the individual's culture and also the respect he shows others.  Improperly dressed in the office has an impact not only on the individual but also on others.  Good dressing enhances ones personality and confidence. 

When you go well dressed to a meeting, you feel good about yourself, so that you reflect positive energy around you.  This positive energy reaches the others and the environment is totally positive.

Why is that in certain professions wearing a "tie" is important? It is to show that 'I take you seriously, and you also do the same'.  It is said 'tie tightens you up' and you mean business.  

Ultimately, it is the person in you who reflects through your clothes.  That is why we have various types of dressing for various occassions.  We feel at home in those situations when we are properly dressed. 

As they say....."Ek noor Aadami ..Das noor kapda"....yeah definitely..power dressing adds value in ur personality & charm too, when it comes to impression mgmt , or influencing people ..in addition to your performance..right kind of dressing style helps alot.... In this era of fast paced.. "show - biz"  people do judge others on face value or first impression.....& if u r leader then people look up to you as role model & observing you closely...wht u wear..how u carry urself.... they r the once who falls under "always preferred"  category when it comes to leading the group.
