Austin Chapter September 2021 Breakfast Meeting - "Decluttering Your Work Environment in More Ways Than One"


Please join FEI Austin as we welcome guest speaker Meredith Garcia, Founder and Owner of Declutter It All, as she presents "Decluttering Your Work Environment in More Ways than One": everything from people to processes, and the paper in between.

Clutter in the workplace is much more than the paper on your desk or the crowded shelves in the supply closet.

It is anything that is keeping your team and organization from firing on all cylinders. In this short presentation, Meredith will share the most common areas of workplace clutter, the pitfalls of ignoring and benefits of addressing each area, as well as how to maintain a clutter-free work environment.
