It is only a start though - at the end of the day what really matters is your performance in the role. However, when given a choice between two equal people for a bigger role, the one who presents themselves better will come out on top. I agree that appearances make the difference.

I sure know what you mean, too, about creating The Look. In my role as a money coach, I had to actually *not* look like a banker, because I wanted to convey an extremely high approachability factor.
