Eliminate Paper Chaos - Part 2 (Hands-On Workshop)

Workshop Description

This hands-on workshop will offer you the opportunity to create your own Daily Action Center(TM).  A Daily Action Center is the location where you will store paper and other information that you access daily, if not several times a day.

The workshop will be faciliatated by Laura Leist and you will receive hands-on help from other Eliminate Chaos Specialists.  You will have the opportunity to bring a stack of papers that you will create a Daily Action Center from and you will leave with the start of your new Daily Action Center where you will be able to quickly put your hands on information you need to access every day.  

The guidance we will provide as to how you will create your Daily Action Center structure will be the key to your success in creating, implementing and maintaining this new system for your home or office.  This is often the most difficult part of creating the system; defining the structure.  With that in place, it will be easy for you to add to your system and then do the labeling; but this comes after the structure is created with our help.

 

Based on Laura Leist's soon to be released book Eliminate Paper Chaos.   

 

What You Will Accomplish

1.  You will define your structure of your Daily Action Center based on the papers and information you bring to the workshop.
2.  You will have time to sort and edit the papers and information you bring and have the opportunity to ask questions of the Specialists and Laura about document retention guidelines.
3.  Using hanging files and file folders you will begin to create your Daily Action Center and then you will be placing your information into these files.

4.  A Daily Action Center with a structure designed for how you will best recall and use information - ready for you to use immediately.
 

What you Need to Bring to the Workshop
