Obvious & Duh!

Mel Lester had an interesting post on his blog, E-Quip last week about the certain obvious tasks /things that we should always be thinking about but sometimes fail to realize.  Here is a list of tasks he talks about:

  • Planning one’s activities for the week
  • Managing non-billable time
  • Making documents skimmable
  • Using second person in proposals
  • Including an executive summary in proposals
  • Regularly soliciting feedback from clients.

These 6 points are simple, yet often are overlooked.  As a recruiter for the architecture and consulting engineering industry, planning my week and managing my time is imperative to serving our A/E clients and being successful.  Without careful planning, and sticking to your plan, it is possible to find yourself scratching your head at the end of the week wondering why you did not get anything productive done.
