POLL: Advisers, what do you wear to client meetings?
This is an interesting question rainier.reyes as an Adviser of 30 plus years what I wear now and what I wore when I started as an Adviser at the young age of 29 is very different, back when I was young it was about wearing suits the right shoes pearl earrings as I felt that I needed to look older and more professional. What I realized was this was not who I was, so I was not putting my authentic self forward. I changed my look to wearing nice dress shoes keeping my hair long not tied up with a Jacket if the occasion called for it, no dark colours. Once I did this, I felt a stronger connection with my clients, today I am the same although much more relaxed sometimes wearing nice, styled jeans shirt and a blazer and nice shoes. My advice is your authentic self don't try to be someone you are not clients see through this; it's a good lesson I learnt very young
