Who hasn’t made a dumb mistake at work at some point in their career? I was recently asked by writer Nancy Mann Jackson to talk about the dumb mistakes people make at work and how to move past them. In her article titled “Five Dumb Mistakes Everyone Makes at Work – And How to Deal” on Glassdoor.com, I shared that one of the most common mistakes I see employees make involves a lack of professionalism. This includes inappropriate attire, showing up late for meetings and poor proofing on important documents.

The article includes some great advice from other HR professionals too. Read and enjoy!
