Keeping your desk organized and clean will promote better quality work. There are those that might disagree, but that is because they can thrive in chaos. If you are not one that can thrive in the midst of piles of papers and scattered post it notes then consider some of these ideas to keep your area clear.
The organizing should start with a filing cabinet. If you have a lot of papers and files that you must retain then use a stand up filing cabinet. If you only maintain a moderate amount of documents then try to find a two drawer cabinet. These will usually fit under a desk. Some desks will have matching component furniture that can be purchased in any location and connected to the desk unit at anytime.
The in and out boxes also still exist. If there is a constant flow of paperwork from your office to another then these can help out. These can sometimes take up more space so most people no longer use them.
Try clearing the work area up by the end of the working day. That way when you get back the next day it will be clear and ready to go. Clutter-less working areas can promote a good mood. Co-workers will appreciate this dedication to keeping up with your area. Most people can respect someone that is organized and consistent.
Containers are a great way to keep the desktop cleared off. The multipurpose containers that hold pens and paperclips and other supplies are excellent space savers. This is one item that can be relied on to do its job with one hundred percent great efficiency. Another handy item to have around is the stapler. One law applies to the stapler, when you need one you probably can’t find one. Keep this in a drawer for just that occasion.
Most people don’t have much say in what kind of space they get at work. Especially if you are in a cubical. If you are one of the hard working executives that are making their way to the top, then you might have a budget to work with. Try to select a desk that is part your personality and the other part is the corporate personality. Most executives will go for the authoritative look. Just remember, that if you get to pick out the furniture, it can say a lot about what type of executive you are.
A good monthly cleaning of the drawers can really help to stay organized during the week. It is also a good way to find some of those documents that may have been misplaced. Another way to keep clutter free is to use a paper shredder. It is a fairly obvious object which makes it hard to forget that it is there.
A Desk calendar is a good way to keep the days organized and protect the desktop from scratches. The calendar serves as both a reminder of days but also is a great place to jot down notes. If you get an opportunity to get to the supply store then pick up one of these calendars.
