Professionalism is something you practice and present to your colleagues in the work place. It's an ethical skill. You always want to show that you know what you're doing and here's how. 

The first thing I learned is to be confident not cocky. Some people don't know the difference between confidence and cockiness you should always be polite and well spoken whether you're interacting with customers, superiors or co-workers. Keep your calm, even during tense situations. You also want to have good communication skills and nice body language/facial expressions. Secondly be an expert in your field continue to study and practice your strong suit. Maybe even continue your education by taking courses, attending seminars and attaining any professional designations. Have your set of skills and continue to build/craft on them. Lastly what I learned/read from this article was behave morally and ethically. You should adhere to a strict code of ethics. Even if there's no written code to have set morals or ethics, you should always display good behavior. Extend your professionalism by being respectful, and have appropriate behavior. I can work towards these goals when it comes to communicating with my film colleagues. I can most certainly apply these to my personal life as well and practice these.
