Human Services Image Analysis

The three images that I viewed are in the psychology / human services field. All the image could portray professions in the human services field. One of the images in the set of three is more business casual then the other two images. All of the image shows people talking or silencing to someone else and being concerned with the information that they are hearing. The first picture in the set of three is of two women talking and one of the women has their hand on the other women shoulder.

The woman standing up is in business attire. The people that are sitting behind her are not all in business attire and seem to be talking to each other.

A professional image also is being knowledgeable of the field, being responsible for their actions, and being polite to everyone. Being a professional is about behavior as much as it is appearance. Their appearance is the first impression then to continue being a professional one must act the part.
Behavior that shows a person is professional is being polite, using appropriate language, having good nonverbal skills, and good eye contact skills. Being polite is not only good in the business world but in everyday life. Good nonverbal skills like body positioning is important so others know you are interested and care about what they are saying. Eye contact is another part of nonverbal skills that is important. Eye contact shows the people that you are talking to you are listening to them and it also show respect to the other person.
I am still working on my own professional skill such as communication and nonverbal body language. I feel that my appearance is professional for my current job however, when or if, I change jobs I will have to work on my attire and get more business type attire. I am fairly good at professional behaviors and using eye contact with whom I am speaking to. I usually follow through with what I say I am going to do and I am polite with people that I talk to no matter how they treat
