Is the adage \u201cFirst impression is the last impression\u201d, still valid in current corporate scenario, is a big question, which creates confusion time and again. It is a very interesting question in today\u2019s business environment. When the dot com boom was at its peak, it became a norm to be able to wear anything to work.

It will distract other employees and affect their performance. A defined dress code also helps in keeping companies image and perception in general public under control. An inappropriately-dressed employee can also prove to be a distraction for clients and potential clients too \u2013 reflecting negatively on the overall impression of the company in what all recognize as a very competitive business climate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
