How to choose the best seat

Infographic_Choosing the Right Seat

When you enter a meeting room, networking event, conference or even a restaurant with friends, it can be tricky to pick where to sit. The last thing you want is to get stuck next to someone you don’t want to sit with, or worse be a loner on the end excluded from most of the conversation. The 45 seconds it takes you to decide where to sit determines how enjoyable your next few hours will be – so choose wisely!

This handy seating chart will help to ensure you get the best seat every time, no matter the size or configuration of the table.

Generally you want to choose a seat in a central location so that you’re in the middle of as many conversations as possible. When tables don’t have an even number of people you can run into difficulties. Such as when you’re at a table with 7 people, you want to sit in the middle on the less-populated side. This gives you easier access to everyone and ensures you don’t wind up having to entertain the person in the odd end seat.

Keep this infographic handy and take its advice. When executed properly your choice will appear natural, unbiased and seemingly random.

Use these simple tips to always choose the best seat.
