Techniques for Getting and Staying Organized

Learn tips and best practices to become more organized.

More than one in four people claim to be disorganized at work. Could you benefit from having a more effective office or workspace? Do you know you could use your time more effectively but aren't sure where to start or what changes to make? This presentation will highlight the struggles and impact disorganization has in the workplace. While the idea of getting organized can seem broad and overwhelming, this course will break down the topic into three key areas for review. We will explore organization in offices and workspaces, techniques to strengthen your time management, and how to get a handle on all you have to do --whether projects, tasks, emails, meetings, or working with staff and teammates. It is vital to employ strategies to maintain organization. These skills can be applied to your work today and will aid in recognizing when you should adapt them as your work changes and evolves.
