Ask 100 people the question, “If you had the time, are there papers, files, magazines, media, equipment, or other items in your office you could comfortably get rid of?” In our experience, at least 99 of them would answer “Yes!” |
The purpose of a Productive Environment Day™ is to give your employees the time, the permission and resources to effectively eliminate anything from their office which can be tossed, recycled, shredded or relocated – and to eliminate the necessity of keeping/and or moving anything that is not necessary to the organization. In May of 2010, a mid-west company with 25 employees eliminated 3.5 tons.
Lisa Guzzo, Certified Productive Environment Specialist ™ (CPES), will provide a checklist of the 18 essential ingredients for a successful event, promotional materials to educate employees about the upcoming opportunity and assist them during the event.
On event day, Lisa will the present a 45 minute The Art of Wastebasketry® “Sometimes It Takes An Expert to Take Out the Trash” seminar. This will incorporate your retention guidelines, as well as, tips and tools for determining what to keep and what can be let go.
