In my 3 hour facilitation training module, I share 10 things that make for great events. As well as thinking about how to ‘dress the room’  I make the point about thinking of how best to turn up, dress wise – each sector (and country) can have quite different dress codes, in their normal work environment and their offsite settings too. I remember my first away day (as a participant) over 20 years ago where I got it completely wrong, dressing more formally, including a tie clip!

We tend to encourage our clients and their groups to come to our sessions to dress as they feel comfortable.

We try to be ‘average’. In these three photos taken over three consecutive days, whilst heading out when staying away last year, which sector do you think is which?
