“Dress how you want to be addressed.”
This well-known quote highlights how appearance can influence the way individuals are perceived in professional environments. Various studies also suggest that first impressions are formed within seconds, and appearance plays an important role in shaping perceptions of competence, confidence, and professionalism.
Research related to workplace dress and appearance also shows that professional appearance is often associated with credibility, productivity, and interpersonal capability in professional settings.
However, personal grooming is not simply about following fashion trends or dressing formally. More importantly, it reflects how individuals respect themselves, understand professional situations, and build a professional presence aligned with their work environment.
In today’s increasingly dynamic and competitive workplace, the ability to appear confident and professional has become an essential soft skill that supports career growth. Communication style, body language, outfit choices, and professional etiquette can significantly influence how individuals build relationships and create positive impressions at work.
Recognizing the importance of this topic, Borwita organized the Public Training Personal Grooming Series themed “Tampil Percaya Diri dan Berkelas di Dunia Kerja” held online via Zoom on May 22, 2026.
The training featured Kevin Liliana, Miss International 2017, who shared valuable insights and experiences related to personal grooming, professional image, and building confidence in the professional world.
Through this program, participants gained practical knowledge that can be directly applied in everyday professional activities, including:
- Personal grooming to improve self-confidence for both men and women
- Dressing guidelines and outfit mix-and-match tips
- Basic professional etiquette through body language and interaction skills
This training was designed not only to enhance professional appearance, but also to help participants understand the importance of personal branding and professional presence in supporting workplace performance.
As a growing FMCG Distributor Indonesia, Borwita believes that employee development should focus not only on hard skills, but also on soft skills that strengthen professionalism in the workplace.
Through the Public Training Personal Grooming Series, Borwita hopes participants can develop stronger self-confidence, improve professionalism, and create positive impressions in every professional opportunity.
