Default Fashion surplus

Ties..a thing of the past? I got asked by the Director of a company 2 years ago that when I was approaching / working with his staff would I kindly not wear a tie! He said that a tie created an instant communication defensive barrier. In a way he's proved himself right. I dont think I've worn one since & it does assist when speaking with someone new; doesnt make me look as officious.
I heard; how true I dont know, that even Sir Terry Leahey of Tesco fame is actively encouraging a tie free workplace.
