Organisations that start worrying about dress codes have lost the plot. The short-lived UK eUniversity used to worry about staff wearing sandals. As an employee, I was horrified that more attention seemed to be focused on types of sandals (open-toed, sling-back, flip-flops) than on the viability of the business plan and the learning environment. I think that when a "dress code" email is sent to staff, it's a strong indicator that strategic management of the organisation has broken down.
