As an assistant I often felt that keeping the office green was mainly my responsibility, so much so that during my time in one company I did email my colleagues a list of things that would help them to do their bit for the environment. I found the list in my ‘things to keep’ file the other day and thought I would share it with you all.

Stash your other projects in folders in a file holder on your desk. Look out the window if you need a break, rather than reading email. Keep your work area spare. lt’s tempting to keep current projects out to remind you of them, but that takes your attention away from the thing you’re working on.

He would often turn up to meetings without the correct supporting papers or they would have doodles all over them, which didn’t help his reputation. He was very self reliant so he didn’t want me to touch his unique filing system. I would pop the file on his desk so that he had everything he needed for the following morning.

That’s not to mention how difficult communication can be if you use email. Before you know it, you’ll have 15 email threads to keep up with, as well as loads of time-tracking spreadsheets for each team member. The only limitation you’ll have is a 10 MB file limit per attachment if you’re on the free plan. What are those?

Team collaboration can be a real challenge if you’re still using written to-do lists and communicating through email. Not only that, but keeping up with dozens of email threads is a remarkably inefficient way to handle task management, not to mention that it’s a huge hassle.

Check your email. Doodle on a note pad. Doodling doesn’t work with a pen because you can’t erase mistakes. Straighten up your files. Look at your email. Read that long chain email someone forwarded to you. Forward that chain email to all your friends. Send an email to your client.
