Large companies used to have big teams of administration staff, making it easy to process expense accounts, have reports written in typing pools and drawings and reports issued by reprographic departments.
However, if you work in a large company today, you’ll find there are many third parties providing these services. You find yourself submitting your own expenses, releasing your own drawings and reports and purchasing your own consumables, all through various portals and third party tools. You’ve been made a jack of all trades master of one… which you don’t get to do very often because you end up doing all this support stuff.
Do you find that you’re using only a small part of these huge systems? I bet you don’t use it that frequently either but there are plenty of different system to try and remember. An whilst you try to remember, productivity simply drains away.
Simply take control and record HOW you use the small part of each system. Imagine, you wouldn’t read the whole photocopier manual before you used it, but you could create a simple guide on how to create a double sided copy!
