It’s a task staying productive. Distractions abound and there are dozens of ways to get anything done. To help you maintain a productive workplace environment, try these tips to increase your efficiency in the workplace.
- Measure Twice, Cut Once – The old adage “measure twice and cut once” applies as well in an office as it does on a construction site. Whether you are a software engineer writing code or a CEO looking at an acquisition, it pays to look at things twice before making the final decision on what to do next. Don’t forget to analyze metrics during any decision-making process and consider how your decision will affect your company.
- Doing It Right Is Cost-Effective – Why does it seem that there is never enough time to do it right, but always enough time to do something over? If you want to be a proactive organization, it will pay huge dividends if everyone concentrates on doing their jobs right the first time – even if it takes a little longer to make sure it is right. And by doing it right the first time, you not only increase your company’s efficiencies, but you can also have an immediate impact on customer loyalty, retention and overall profits.
- Ready, Aim, Fire – Many people can get caught-up in “analysis paralysis.” To help avoid this trap, figure out what you want to do, make a plan with the best information possible and then immediately engage the plan. If not, you will find yourself left behind and wondering what happened.
