I would love to share my passion for workplace efficiency with your group! These sessions are a great addition to your luncheons, chapter meetings, or conference break-out sessions. Below are a few popular sessions with many more available. If you’d like to chat and find the session that is right for your group, contact us.

Doing What Matters Most: Over the course of any given day, there seems to be an endless barrage of incoming items: emails, phone calls, paper, meetings, and so on. If you’re like many, you end the day feeling like you didn’t even get to do what was important. In this session, we’ll discuss a few simple strategies to help you manage the work, take back some control of your day, and have more time for what matters most.

Microsoft Office Efficiencies: aka “What Janet wishes every client knew.” You know the programs, Excel, Word, Outlook. You probably use them daily, never having a chance to explore the features that could make your life easier. In this session, Janet will unlock some of the hidden tips, tools, and techniques. There’s sure to be an A-ha! for everyone.

Foundation of Organization: Does workplace organization seem as elusive and unachievable as tracking Sasquatch? Some say it exists, but you’re not convinced. With over two decades of experience working with government entities, small and large businesses, and the non-profit community, Janet will share the foundational principles she uses to help her clients get – and stay – organized, resulting in increased productivity and improved efficiency! The format of this session will be conversation/dialog, so come prepared to share your frustrations and successes with workplace organization.

Below is a general listing of what our consulting services can include. Because no two situations are the same, please contact us to discuss your unique needs and see if we can help.

Microsoft Solutions: I fully believe in Occam’s razor: the simplest solution is often the best solution. Instead of installing expensive, complicated systems, together we can often find a better way by simply using the tools you already own and know such as Microsoft programs to solve workflow issues. Sometimes the solution is a custom designed tool and other times it may just be providing a little training to get the most out of your existing tools.

Shared Server Organization: One of the most frequently requested projects is to help organize electronic files. As a result, I have designed a simple, repeatable approach to help any organization spend less time looking for information, remove redundancy, and increase collaboration while helping everyone adjust to the new environment.

One-on-One Coaching: Pulling from decades of past experiences and best practices, I work with individuals to find what works for that unique person so that he/she can be as organized and productive as desired in his/her unique setting. This is coaching in its traditional sense: making a game plan, practicing the skills, executing, and refining as needed for ultimate success.

Facilitation Services: Simply put, this is getting everyone in the room, asking questions, solving problems, and making progress together. Even if the subject matter is not my forte, I have a way of pulling out all the ideas, helping the group prioritize, and then delivering an action plan while leaving everyone in the room “whole.” As desired, I can even help monitor execution of the action plan to ensure progress.

Organization Services: It is not uncommon for an organization to not just have a few junk drawers but entire “junk rooms.” You know the room, basement, or mezzanine, where files and equipment go to die. I firmly believe that if it is worth keeping, then it is worth knowing how to find quickly. And I am not afraid of entering these out-of-control places to create an easy way for you to find it when you need it.

Processes & Procedures: My typical client reaches out because they are already successful, but their processes haven’t grown with their success. As they find their organizations growing and evolving, they recognize the need to develop processes and procedures that can be provided to and repeated by current staff, future employees, or even future owners. I will learn the workflow and create any necessary forms, templates, checklists, action plans, process flows, and/or procedures to help document and standardize business processes. I tell my clients that I’ll write these tools in a manner so that even I had to step in and do the work, I could.
