Impression Management: Everyone needs to know...


“First impression is the most important impression & in the competitive corporate environment there is never a second chance for a first impression”

Impression management is a way by which individuals try to manage or control the perception formed by other individuals about themselves. Everyone wish to present themselves in a socially desirable way to impress others. Sometimes, impression management is used by someone as a shortcut to achieve success in their personal, professional & social life.

Impression management is all about enhancing individual performance by improving personal appearance, body language, and communication skill in order to create a positive impression on the target audience.

We have so many impression management techniques (like Self Promotion, Intimidation, Ingratiation, Supplication & Exemplification), if used properly it ensure personal & professional success of an individual.
