Business - How to Organize an Office

August 15th, 2008

Bet you thought you were going to get a long list of things to do about organizing an office right? Well, maybe a partial recommendation of things to do, but I don’t DO lists. Come to think of it, asking me about organizing anything might not be such a good idea. Have you seen MY office? No? Best you don’t! Seriously though, some measure of control in the workplace is essential.

You DO have to be able to find files when they’re needed, find the phone when it rings, sort through the mail when it arrives, not flounder with it amongst your reports and be able to locate paper clips and other sundry items for finished work. Try for a relatively clean desktop and at the very least, label your files so you can find them in hurry. Failing all else, hire an office organizer and then stick with the program. You’ll be glad you did when it pays for your Morocco Riad holiday as a treat.
