Quick Tip: Use your Name Badges to Facilitate Group Activities

When hosting networking events having professional name badges can also play an interactive role. Instead of just having the name and company on them you might want to also consider colour coding them to facilitate an event activity. For example, colour coding may be used to facilitate group discussion or a break out, a hidden name or symbol can help facilitate some speed networking to find a matched individual. Alternatively colour coding can be used to signify a role or industry to facilitate cross-professional networking, or to quickly signify to someone why you are attending an event and what you are looking for.

Be creative, and come up with creative ways to use your name badges.
