Time for Spring Cleaning (Your Office)

Isn’t there something about Spring that makes us want to beat the chaos and start anew? And that doesn’t just mean our homes and outdoor space — it means our businesses too! We have made it through the time change, and now Spring, followed by a nice hot Florida summer is just around the corner. It’s time to Spring Forward and do a little Spring cleaning in your professional life.

Now we don’t mean cleaning literally…actually, we take that back. Take a second to disinfect your workspace. Clean your laptop screen and the keyboard. And your cell phone. Germs are everywhere. We suggest wiping these items down once a week.

An easy way to keep your actual workspace clear? The things you use consistently should be within the radius of your arms. No matter, if you are at our shared workspace, or at home-this, can include your monitor and keyboard, telephone, two pens, one notebook, etc. Supplies and paperwork should be kept in the zones you’ve established for them.

Some experts say most of us treat our email inbox like a to-do list, which adds to the stress of any profession and any successful workflow. Attempt a namaste spring clean by organizing your inbox with folders or task functions that will increase your work productivity.

With a freshly organized inbox, make appointments with yourself at least once a quarter to clean out those folders. And now that your inbox is sparkling how about digging into your other folders – especially those on shared drives like Dropbox or Google Drive?

In your professional life, sometimes a spring clean doesn’t mean breaking out the vacuum or Windex, it means taking stock of what’s working well and what’s not, and getting yourself mentally revived after a long winter.

What Our Clients Say

I’ve been renting a desk/room full time with Work Webb for about a year now and the owners, staff (Susan!!), and tenants are absolutely amazing! Work Webb always goes the extra mile and are super accommodating. I’ve also held many closings and team meetings in one of their available beautiful conference rooms and all clients & team members always walk in and out extremely impressed by the decor, professionalism and awesome views! I’ve looked around many other office options prior to joining Work Webb and the only regret I have is that I wish I became a tenant sooner! Once you walk in for your first tour and speak with Susan or Heidi, you will quickly realize the decision to become a tenant is an absolute no-brainer.
