"Everyone Knows ..." To be effective in any role we need to be organised. Too often it is taken for granted that "everyone knows" how to organise themselves, their time, their paperwork. That's a myth! If they did then there wouldn't be so many stressed out people in
workplace working long hours and being unable to cope with their workloads…and I wouldn't be in business!
Cut Costs Without Cutting Your Own Throat If your organisation is or has already cut resources to
bone, whatever you do make sure that those people remaining continually keep improving their skills so that they can perform to
best of their ability. Be careful
cost cutting strategies don't burn your people out so they end up leaving.t can cost an organisation thousands of dollars to replace a valuable employee.
The Final Word Learning how to be better organised will help you and your team be more productive. If you're more productive you feel better about yourself, you're less stressed, you get more done and therefore have more time. And in this fast-paced society isn't that what many people want? More time for themselves, and their families.
