Wear red to show you're 'focused, committed, and trustworthy. According to a study published in the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research in 2012, waitresses wearing red earned more money. If you want to persuade or impress someone in the office, you could try wearing a powerful shade of red. The color makes others view you as someone who's "focused, committed, and trustworthy," said Kenny Frimpong, brand marketing and development manager at high-end Italian clothing store Eredi Pisano."We've been in business for about 15 years, and we encourage most of our clients to wear red."

Wake up earlier come to job earlier


If you want to impress your boss, get to the office early. Although studies show that night owls tend to be smarter and more creative than morning types, those who wake up early have better job performance, greater career success, and higher wages.

People who wake up early are typically also happier, healthier, and have higher satisfaction compared to their friends who prefer the night life, according to a study conducted by the University of Toronto. Being happier also means that you'll be more productive at your job and easier to work with.


 

Wear makeup (if you're a woman).


Professional women who wear makeup are viewed as more competent and likeable than those who go au naturel, according to one study funded by makeup manufacturer Procter & Gamble.

 

Show executive presence


If you want to impress your superiors, you need to show that you have leadership potential. What does this mean? One study by non-profit research organization Center for Talent Innovation said that having "executive presence" comes down to exuding confidence, calmness under pressure, and decisiveness. Executive presence also counts for 26% of what it takes to get that promotion.

Don't negotiate face-to-face


If you want to impress your boss with your negotiating skills, do it through a virtual medium, according to one British study. Face-to-face interactions won't benefit you, since you're not the more powerful person in the situation. Basically, the more powerful you are, the more you'll get out of in-person meetings. This could also possibly be the reason why some employees won't speak up in meetings with their bosses or why brainstorming sessions result in a list full of ideas from only the leader.

 

Make them think your idea was theirs all along



Want to wow your boss with your ideas? Get them to believe it was theirs all along, said author Douglas Van Praet in his book "Unconscious Branding." This way, your boss will have you work on ideas that you believe in because the ideas were yours to begin with


Think twice before helping someone else at work


When you help someone else, you may feel good about yourself, but a study conducted by German and Swiss researchers found that it doesn't actually help your work performance. In fact, the study said that "participants who requested help with a task performed better, while those who supplied assistance did worse.Why? Most likely because you're interrupted while doing your own work. If this happens frequently enough, you'll end up suffering from “cognitive load."
Yes, you might be building connections with your coworkers as you show them the ropes, but it's important to make sure you're on top of your own duties.

Smile is good for all


If you smile enough, your body eventually thinks that work isn't so bad," writes Meredith Lepore at Levo League, and you'll become a more pleasant person to be around. So the next time you and your boss are dealing with a difficult situation, you should smile, said Dr. Carol Kinsey Goman, the author of 12 books, including "The Silent Language of Leaders: How Body Language Can Help—or Hurt—How You Lead.Kinsey Goman said that this is the fundamental idea of faking it until you make it, since you are tricking your body into thinking that the task isn't difficult.

Have sex at least four times a week


Impress your boss by being a happy, calm person — no matter what. How do you do this? One strategy is to have sex at least four times per week. According to a paper titled "The Effect of Sexual Activity on Wages," published by the Institute for the Study of Labor in Bonn, Germany, having sex regularly each week may result in higher self-esteem, confidence, and overall happiness, which in turn makes employees more amiable, productive, and creative.Sex is the "barometer for health, quality of life, well-being, and happiness," the study said.
The study found that sex can be an important factor in how satisfied someone is in their personal life, and satisfaction in that area can affect work as well
