For most Professionalism is nothing more than a "buzzword", with almost everyone calling themselves “professional”.

Starman Auctions believes professionalism requires a blend of behavior, skills, and knowledge to achieve a defined standard. These are the three parts to professionalism and they interact to produce a result that may then be described as “professionalism”.

Putting these three into action requires qualifications, continued professional development and ethics and integrity.
