The personality of people reflects their identity, where each individual acquires his or her qualities from the social aspects surrounding them. They establish their behavior and practice within the cultural framework where they grow up in, learn from, and interact with.
It is where the intellectual and behavioral patterns are drawn that facilitate the adaptation of individuals, as well as their relationships with the general surroundings, as explained by Linton in defining “personality.”
First Impressions are important because they are the initial impression people leave from the first look which hardly can be improved in the second time. For that reason, the interest in showing the perfect version of one’s personality has become the main driver for experts in providing advice to employees, professionals, and for those who hold influential positions, whether towards the community, managers, or the masses.
Which means that job applicants were selected according to their external appearance while a number of applicants were excluded as a result of them being exposed to certain projections which find them unfamiliar to them. These projections increase the pressure and psychological tensions and have negative impacts on people who find it hard to get rid of or act spontaneously. These people could be job seekers, businessmen and even professionals despite their professional success. they could be exposed to the loss of many relationships in political, cultural, and economic fields, if they are faced with unfamiliar projections outside their cultural and social environment.
The importance of personality, its definition and building are what we aspire to achieve in this article, we aim to define the importance of removing the image and showing it as a milestone that leaves a clear print in the minds of others. This brand that distinguishes individuals in the context of career competition is what we know as the “personal image branding”.
The “Personal image” of individuals are the qualities of the external appearance only in the outfit, elegance, cleanliness which is commonly known among the members of the community in general. The “Personal branding”, on the other hand, is the full representation of the person. Where he or she leaves his or her impact in the work environment and the relationships resulting from it through the development of the personality in order to leave a clear emotional, spontaneous, and influential impressions.
It is therefore necessary for each person to recognize and seek to develop themselves to reach the essence of the personality, in enhancing their cultural and cognitive abilities that will help them to stay on the right track. Moreover, individuals must learn the “culture of elegance” and choose the image that best suits his or her personality, which must be carried out on three bases to reach a personal brand:
The concept of charisma refers to the ability to influence others positively by communicating with them physically, intellectually, and emotionally as Tony Alexander defined and explained in demonstrating the importance of the “personality” that defined its charismatic characteristics in combining the following:
These qualities have led to the superiority of businessmen in leading their institutions and companies, as well as political leaders who have succeeded in attracting their audiences which also have strengthened their positions in politics.
Rebuilding charisma requires an internal force that drives individuals to gain strength, influence success in achieving goals, and creating a personality that has an impact on the psychosocial dimension and enhances a person’s self-confidence and self-esteem thus reaching satisfaction and personal balance.
In order to achieve these goals, individuals must acquire basic skills and attributes in the formation of the charismatic personality,
most notably; the reprogramming of the nervous system to get rid of weaknesses and disadvantages in order to gain independence and enjoy the strength of Presence.
A study by Duke University on the controversial relationship between “appearance” and “success” in the business world, and career advancement.
The study proved that personal attributes like; ambition and competence are not the only elements of qualifications for CEO’s through a beauty contest held by the university where the appearance was the main factor. Even the researchers commented about that saying: “We expected the outer appearance to be a factor for the success of politicians in their elections, but we did not expect that to be a factor for the success of executives as well, who assumed to be appointed for more important reasons than appearance.”
The importance of taking care of appearance seeks to break the stereotype of people and give a bright image that reflects a positive spirit in dealing with others. In a simple comparison in the daily life between people whom we meet in public places who attract us by the smell of their fragrance, the hairstyle, and elegance of clothing. All of which creates an image printed in our imagination while ordinary persons do not leave that impression …
The personal image of people has become a key for communication especially within the global openness that we live in, whether in public life or digital networks, which have now become one of the most important way of social and professional communication.
