Looking for a unique team building activity, Abby Young Styling gives teams an interactive experience while also teaching employees something they can use long after the event is over. Your team walks away understanding more about their personal coloring, professional presence, and how visual choices can influence the way they present themselves at work.
For companies looking for something that sits between team building and professional development, personal style creates an interesting place for the two to overlap.
Color Analysis: Team Building Activity
Color Analysis is inherently personal, but it also works surprisingly well in a group.
People see how the same shade can look completely different from one person to another. Someone discovers why they naturally gravitate toward navy while someone else realizes why warmer neutrals have always felt easier to wear.
Those discoveries create conversation without requiring traditional icebreakers or forced participation. More importantly, employees leave with information they can actually use.
Understanding which colors complement your natural coloring can make shopping, getting dressed, and choosing clothing for professional environments easier. It creates a foundation for making more intentional decisions rather than simply buying whatever happens to be available.
From Personal Color to Professional Presence
Color is only one part of how we visually communicate. What we wear can influence perceptions of polish, approachability, creativity, authority, and attention to detail before we’ve had much opportunity to explain who we are.
That becomes increasingly important as you move into more visible roles.
A client presentation requires something different from an internal meeting. A conference panel creates different considerations than a regular day at the office. Headshots, media appearances, speaking engagements, investor meetings, networking events, and company photoshoots all introduce another layer of visibility.
Our corporate offerings can expand beyond Color Analysis into professional presence presentations that help teams understand how clothing and personal presentation can support the environments they’re actually navigating.
This helps professionals become more intentional about what they’re already communicating.
Add Silhouette Analysis to the Experience
Abby Young Styling can incorporate Body Shape and Face Shape Silhouette Analysis into corporate experiences to give employees a broader understanding of personal style.
- Body Shape Silhouette Analysis helps participants understand how different proportions and cuts interact with their individual silhouette.
- Face Shape Analysis can provide context for details closer to the face, including necklines, accessories, jewelry and eyewear.
Rather than handing everyone the same list of “flattering” pieces, these analyses give people a framework for understanding why certain choices may feel more natural to them than others.
Interactive Presentations
AYS’s presentations make sure to interact with our audience and keep them engaged.
For example, what does “business casual” actually look like within your company’s culture? What changes when someone begins speaking publicly, meeting clients, attending conferences, or representing the company externally?
Our strategic approach to styling helps answer image and professional presence questions.
Supporting Employees Through High-Visibility Moments
Sometimes an employee or leadership team needs individualized support.
Companies can also incorporate personal shopping and styling for professionals preparing for specific high-visibility moments, including:
- Executive and leadership headshots
- Company photoshoots
- Conferences and speaking engagements
- Panels and presentations
- Media appearances
- Investor meetings
- Awards and company events
- Client-facing engagements
This is particularly useful when someone’s professional visibility has changed faster than their wardrobe.
They may know how to dress for their normal workday but suddenly find themselves asking, What am I supposed to wear for this?
Personal styling provides context for that next level of visibility without asking someone to become a different version of themselves.
Build the Experience Around Your Team
Not every company needs the same workshop.
A team looking for an interactive employee experience might center the event around individual Color Analysis.
A leadership group may benefit more from a professional presence and image strategy presentation.
Another organization might combine Color and Silhouette Analysis with a broader presentation around professional dress, followed by individual styling support for executives or client-facing employees.
