Profession

Profession: To profess means to practise (and to declare) whatever it is that you do, in collaboration with others, in order to survive, biologically and socially.

According to the Online Etymology Dictionary[1], to profess means (and resonates  semantically) with: declare openly, testify voluntarily, acknowledge, make public statement of.

However, work and collaboration are closely connected, and so is the enjoyment derived from them.

My profession is, firstly, a professor. In Greece, a professor is honorably addressed as “teacher”, especially by his students. This is something that I have heard often and I feel really proud of.

Except for being an educator, I profess Applied Communication and Corporate Social Responsibility as a consultant. You may learn more at this site.

I would be pleased to answer your questions, written or oral. Please contact me at  bureau@cap8.gr.
