Create office efficiency and business productivity with this helpful book.

Eliminate the Chaos at Work increases your business productivity and peace of mind by showing you how to create streamlined information systems, processes, and workflows.

Laura's proven twenty-five techniques are easy to implement, realistic, and results-oriented. Using these techniques, you can take control over your time and information to create workable systems built to reflect how you think and process information.

Eliminate the Chaos at Work breaks down the everyday organization and productivity challenges you face at work into four areas: time, paper and information management as well as managing all of the stuff in your office. You'll learn effective time and information management techniques, including how to:

Produce logical, user-friendly information management systems to ensure information is organized and easily retrievable

Schedule and manage meetings that aren't total time wasters

Implement a system to process and follow up on e-mail

Create an organized e-mail filing structure for easy retrieval

De-clutter paper files and decide what can be stored, scanned, shredded, or recycled

Learn what paper management system will work best for you and how to create the filing structure

Use the PAPERS method for maintaining efficient paper management systems

Determine which task management system is right for your needs and how to manage your tasks and projects daily using the 20-minute rule

Use the 10-step process to organize the stuff in your office

Imagine working in an office where you feel in control and on top of things, instead of overwhelmed. Set up a comfortable workspace and make yourself and your team's office more productive, supported, and in control with Eliminate the Chaos at Work.
