Dress for the position you want, not the one you have.

These all seem standard, professional things. I need above and beyond type suggestions.

Again, consulting to the government could mean anything. Try letting your thong hang over your pants perhaps.

Work hard, be kind, on time and pump up my resume or annual reviews with training (out of pocket if needed). I also learn from my mistakes and don't try to act like a know it all.

Always be professional. Be proactive, but don't kiss-ass. Keep things in perspective. Don't gossip or play office politics. Work hard and show an interest in all aspects of the business.

I think of my colleagues as teammates - no competition here. Some of my closest friends are current or former colleagues. Sorry, OP, that does not sound like a fun place to work.

Your professionals. Late 20s to mid 30s. Prefer not to state industry but don't mind using the word consulting.

I work in a very competitive office where peers are pitted against each other by management. How do you stand out among your colleagues and differentiate yourself to get ahead?
