Back to Office Essentials
Whether you're sticking to work from home, working remotely or going back to the office; many are finding themselves without the office accessories they're used to. Going back to the office also might seem overwhelming, that same desk, where you dropped coffee on a Monday morning. The same desk where you forgot your work assignments on a friday evening. The same desk which you were probably happy you didn’t see for months. From journals to stationery and even ergonomic chairs, here's a blog to aid you in finding the right back to office essentials and make this transition easier.
1. Essentials to enhance focus and productivity:
Losing focus when you’re back in the office can come very easily. The “just one more game online" excuse is hampering your work. If you’re the kind of person who loves to procrastinate but still enjoys taking a break to finish up on pending work, then perhaps you’d like to look into picking up an organizer notepad or office folder for yourself.
Office folders not only help to plan out work days for you and your team, but are also known to boost productivity, save time and get tasks completed sooner than your determined deadlines. Notepads also allow for smoother more effective communication among individuals at the workplace, since you have your days planned according to everyone else. So all that hassle of having to keep track of all your daily tasks, meeting and appointments seemingly become less overwhelming.
Personalized folders today come with sleek attachments to place your stationery, cell phones, tablet computers and laptops and secure them for later use. Keep in mind that your belongings and ideas, when neatly organized, can lead to very fruitful working days. But when you have folders from The Black Box Co, they are stylish as well.
2. Essentials to organize your workspace:
So you’ve made sure that your primary work equipment is organized. But what about the rest of your workspace? Do you usually find random stationery strewn around every drawer? Have you also been accidentally pricked by a stray thumbtack on your desk, hidden in plain sight? Well, as painful as that sounds (and it probably is), having a desk organizer to keep your stationery in place is very essential.
There may have been times when you misplaces something at your desk. These peripherals help to give your desk that mature and aesthetically pleasing appearance that will make you feel content and your coworkers jealous (probably).
We at The Black Box Co. recommend looking into getting yourself a pen stand. Perhaps some valet trays for all those pins and clips. Well, ofcourse you need a gadget organizer for those pesky wires that get tangled up the moment you look away. Being unorganized is a sign of the inability to control hoarding. Hoarding leads to being less resourceful. Thus making you feel overwhelmed at your desk, when you can’t find something you need. Having a desk organizer with compartments can really help you keep your space de-cluttered. This also leads to a more efficient work cycle.
If cleanliness is next godliness, here’s your chance at reverence.
3. On-the-go essentials:
Now that we’ve figured out how you can keep your workspace de-cluttered and your work-life organized; what if you have to work on the go? Are you a nomad who is keen on traveling for work? Have you been asked to pack up for an important meeting and fly out tonight? Or what if you need work done on the commute to the office? Having a backup plan to get work done on the go has come at the right time.
Work essentials for when you’re the on-the-go are unique and simple. Once you get used to them, there is no going back.
