3 Things Your Workplace Says About You

CHernandez

Do you work to maintain your personal brand in your workplace?

Regardless if you are working in a cubicle, or in the corner office with a great view, your workspace tells your bosses, co-workers, clients and employees quite a bit about you. As a result, it’s no surprise that your workspace marks the best starting point in regards to controlling the narrative you tell about yourself.

If you are ready to spread the right message about you and your work ethic, then these tips may help.

Determine What Your Desk Says About You

When you begin adding personal touches to your workspace, consider the message they are sending. Be sure to consider each item carefully. Would certain things offend a potential client? Think strategically about your choices and don’t overwhelm the space with too much “stuff.”

Are You Overly Organized?

While having a cluttered workspace is obviously something you want to avoid, having a workspace that is completely bare may even be more concerning. If you don’t invest some type of personal care for the space, then it may communicate that you don’t view the position as a long-term role.

Chairs are Necessary

There’s no question that standing desks have become extremely popular in recent years. However, even if this is the case, you need to make sure you have comfortable seating in your office, too. While it may be your space, it doesn’t mean that no one else will be in here. Be sure to add seats for when other people come into the office, or when you need to work with someone on a project. This will help make everyone feel more comfortable.

Are you unsure where to begin in creating the right message with your workspace? If so, start small. Find some interesting things to ad and then make changes as you go.

If your workspace seems too cluttered, try to go through everything and get rid of what you don’t need. In the long run, this will help you portray the right message to other people. Be sure to contact Elite Office Suites to find out more about our office spaces.
