Now that we went through our daily goals (and are trying to keep up with them) we can move onto the weekly goals. Check out below some of the goals we came up with and can hopefully achieve!
1. Email Inbox
Sometimes our weeks get pretty packed and the email exchange traffic is high! (#yougotmail) So it would be a good habit if at the end of the week or twice a week the inbox got reviewed and cleaned up. Going through the flagged emails and making sure they got answered or resolved. Making sure any attachments got saved and filed correctly. So this way the inbox isn’t overwhelming and you are ready for the next wave of emails coming in!
2. Office Snacks
Here@HAYNE we snack! Our Office Mom, Hillary, is great about keeping us stocked up with snacks and drinks… we just need to be better about telling her when we are out of things! So this year let’s stay stocked up! Yeah 2020!
3. Blog Posting
We created a system where we try to blog post on Wednesdays. This isn’t always the case but want to at least start it on Wednesday so that we have Thursday and Friday as back up days. The goal it to post once a week. So far in 2020 we are killing it! (#onlytwoweeksin) Along with our blog post we like to post a “Friday Fun” post which are usually a Revit WTF (sometimes AutoCAD) or Here@HAYNE slogan. Check them out!
Along with actually posting the blog weekly, it is very helpful if ideas for the post are readily available. We have started a Blog Post Idea Book to help get our ideas together in one place with tabs for the different categories.
4. Desk Clean Up
Along with the email build up, our desks can get a bit cluttered with sketches or print outs so a goal would be at the end of week to do a desk sweep. Making sure sketches on the desk are scanned and filed before tossing them or putting that project binder back with the others when you aren’t working on it anymore can help keep the office organized!
5. Up that Instagram
Social media is a huge platform for promoting and show casing your work. It also is a great way to show the office’s dynamic and personality. We’re not a regular office, we’re a cool office #meangirls So it would be great if we can remember to get more posts out weekly to better represent us here@HAYNE! Don’t forget to follow us @hayne_architects
Let us know some of your office weekly goals for the year 2020! Stay tuned for us to share our monthly goals next week… on Wednesday.. hopefully!
