Bloody hell there just arenāt enough hours in the day are there ?
Do you find that staff members are constantly at the office door asking for stuff! Constantly in and out disturbing you whilst youāre trying to get your essential jobs done!
Do you find that ( some ) team members come to the office, to ask the most daft and stupid questions, that they know the answer to? š¤Ŗ
Sometimes it feels like they just want an excuse to get out of their rooms and kill time!
Thing is, as leaders and manager although paperwork isnāt our most favourite thing to do, sometimes we just need to get it done ! Off our plates and sorted!
Writing up reports, safeguarding notes, contacting other agencies and professionals is all part of our leadership role
We donāt want to spend hours chained to the desk or leave things hanging over our heads and making us feel stressed and worried about deadline dates or have we documented essential reports accurately. š°
But when our fellow team members keep popping in and out for silly stuff, it can disrupt our flow and prevent us getting our work done quickly and effectively!
So what to do ?
Itās important as leaders and managers to lead with HEART courage and confidence, but that doesnāt mean you donāt set boundaries.
To give responsibility to our team members and encourage them to seek solutions and answer for THEMSELVES!
To SET ourselves time to complete your paperwork and stop procrastinating, to get that job (the ones weāve been putting off for ages ) DONE !
Letās set clear guidelines amongst our team and ensure YOU as the leader manager are completing YOUR tasks instead of doing everyone elseās !
Letās be productive, time smart!
Otherwise, guess what?
Yes thatās right- weāll be taking that bloody paperwork home, to complete on an evening or at the weekend!!!!
