In the enterprise and the government, a lot of people, including top people are because of the need to keep your desk neat and under pressure. A written or unwritten rule is always a mess of a messy desk. Many American companies have keep employees "tidy office environment" provisions, some of the organization's approach is even more exaggerated, they proudly on the site in written form promulgated the relevant provisions of the public but also because here the employees have to maintain the capacity of the office environment clean and of their appreciation and. It is not clear how many times the messy desks have played a role in the career, but there are indeed some organizations that pay a very heavy price for chaos. Such as the Pennsylvania police chief for the Bradford tidy office dismissed is an example.
When asked to clean and organized. The only exception is academic, there is no constraint to the confusion in the work environment of "safe haven", University Teachers reputation will and desk and around the bulk material proportional to the height of. When the Nobel prize winner, University of Chicago economics professor Robert Fogel (Fogel Robert) found his desk piled up, he decided to add a table behind. But now the new book on the table has been piled up like a mountain. Robert in school colleague, "MacArthur" Genius Award "obtain, chemist Stephen Berry (Stephen berry) in 18 feet high piles of papers work, the pile of papers in individual documents pile has been there for as long as 20 years.
It may be that the chaos of the desks is the common ground of the eccentric genius. Perhaps you will assume that if they follow the quest for an orderly tradition, get a desk that can help them save time and improve efficiency, they may create more results. But if people are like Abigail Saelen (Sellen Abigail), Richard Harper (Harper Richard) couple that research work efficiency, may come to the conclusion is very different. The couple, respectively, a senior researcher at the Microsoft Corp and the author of the myth of the paperless office, who tried to prove that the messy desks could provide a very useful working environment.
First of all, it is necessary to keep the desk clean and tidy. To keep the table top is not redundant, it means that you have to bind up most of the new files, throw away or transfer to other people. You can keep them in a very neat and tidy filing cabinet. However, if taking into account the query file, or is to figure out which files and the unfinished projects or its deadline, you have to spend time to read each file, and the appropriate code.
　　
In addition, you need to take the time to carefully check the file every day, and sometimes need to remember the placement of each file, clearly know which one is the need for emergency treatment. If you have a high priority project and a low priority projects where a customer, you should put them in the same folder under the name of the client, or were placed in the "emergency" and "urgent" this folder? Next, when you find the files you need, take them out and put them on your desk. The amount of time spent on filing and finding files every day depends on the complexity of your work, the number of receiving files, and the type of file you are working on. But no matter how much it is, it does not belong to the effective working hours.
Maybe you can listen to the organizational career planners to file a complete "the processing opinion: any with the documents related to the task to timely treatment, but after the completion of the can will the archive, forget, throw away or turn a blind eye. Anyway, all the work will come in handy to do, "a new task will immediately begin and bang finish seems like a good idea. But there is no lack of exceptions: it is not all the tasks can be completed, the majority of the task is simply irrelevant. More importantly, there are some jobs that are much higher than others! In the "complete" the guiding ideology, you may still have three days to to the manager submitted and career success or failure at stake report, remains in the emergency take time to deal with office activities and seminars leaflets. Therefore, there is no need to strictly comply with the requirements of a complete. Until the important report is completed, it will be put on a temporary hold, and there is no problem in the corner of the desk. Even if other files are very important, you don't need to interrupt the thought of writing a report for immediate processing, just put them aside for a while.
The messy desk is actually an efficient system, because it can effectively work in accordance with the priorities of the order. The owners of the chaos desk, despite their different habits, often inadvertently ensure the most important work of the priority. In the chaos of the desk, in general the more urgent and important work, is being put in hand or piled on top, and materials that can be completely ignored were pressed in the under or is piled in the back, which is very meaningful. Sometimes you may actually have to spend time headlong into piles of papers looking for required that a -- this is the organizational career planners critical chaos desk of one of the reasons, they said the time you spend will from at least 1 hour per week to up daily one hour ranging -- but in fact, as long as they remained at a reasonable level of confusion, you will have neat desks people to better use of time. First of all, the most needed documents are at hand. According to our survey, the average person who has a neat desk at work is more than 36% per person.
A variety of documents on the mess desk represent an amazing, complex, informal file system. Compared with the filing cabinet, it is more efficient and more flexible. Chaos desk owners also have some common characteristics, such as emergency, emergency, non emergency documents were stacked into three piles. In each pile, they have the relevant documents together, such as those from the same client file. If you plan to pay particular attention to a particular file, you can take it out of the pile or turn it over and make it look more visible. If a file is placed in any of the two piles is reasonable, you can let it cross between the two piles. The need to find a document can not only in two ways: the urgency and customer belonging to look for, can also recall from the last to see how old it is, and also joint see other documents, as more ancient, with less material is usually placed in the bottom. If your desk belong to a class of chaotic, even though you may never specifically thought strategy for the chaotic, but heard the method mentioned above, is not still feel deja vu? As Saelen and Harper have said, one of the characteristics of the messy desk is that the chaotic table can more realistically show the owner's work style and personal habits. Ideas and work are often unpredictable, vary widely, and are not sure, they are chaotic. If so, why can't the desk be confused?
Human Resources Inc (Office Ajilon), a survey results show that: the higher the education level, the higher the salary, the more experienced people, the more messy office.
Many professional organizations have suggested that the "right" habit of clean and orderly should be taught to children at the beginning of elementary school. Really should like this?
When I visited a public elementary school fifth grade classroom, students to my boasting a clean as new desks and spotless floor. It didn't seem to be a mess, but in addition to a desk at the back of the classroom. The floor next to it was filled with all kinds of mess, and it was crumbling.
When asked about the origin of the discordant landscape, while the teacher smiled to us explain her a provision: during the day, students can put anything they need on the desk, and at the end of the day to them in the drawer. But there is a student does not meet the requirements every day, there are 7 inches high things do not go in. He always had some extra books, a pile of unfinished paintings, and some other things.
So the teacher and the students launched a "protracted war", until a few weeks later, the teacher finally understood the reason. She said, "I realize that it's not about discipline, but out of curiosity. He just thought it was fun to do that. So many children came to the school for what? In order to clean? In order to be motivated? So I allowed him to put extra items in a pile at the back of the desk, and then we had no problems." So, if Zhenru organizational career planners suggest that, from a young age to develop children's grooming habits will not like this example children as counterproductive?

Recommended reason: there are more and more companies find themselves caught in the "value network" and "ecosystem" which only have partial control right. Thus, the outcome of the competition is not determined by the market power of the product, but the product is behind the success of the coordination. The level of division of labor, anti intermediary and outsourcing trend, coupled with the cooperative development projects and industrial union, growth, make enterprises become more and more difficult to independently control their own future. Shortened life cycle. The establishment of a new company is fast and easy to make a new company, because of its easy money, convenient service and powerful Internet search function. However, when an enterprise to grow faster, it is faster to complete objectives set by the initial business model, and then reach a peak, finally entered a period of decline. Today's success curves are usually short and pointed.
In order to meet these new challenges, we need to have a new organization and management capabilities. In order to succeed in a world in which the old order is constantly collapsing, companies must have a flexible strategy and efficient operating policy.

Recommended reason: why first-class enterprises suddenly their market back to new competitors? To avoid such a fate, you need to abandon those in the past to make them successful skills and products, then what enterprises can do this? This book explains the enterprise if we continue to continue to be based on the continuity of the assumptions and other management philosophy to operate, long-term, is bound to be unable to market speed and scale of innovation or create value. We see the market leading Texas Instruments, Xerox is some less resources, poor technology, market dominating force weaker competitors beyond, and these so-called offensive advantage is based on their innovation advantage. For most observers, innovation is a process of isolation, which requires creativity and talent, and may even require a great process. In their view, innovation is unable to manage and predict, can only be sent in the hope that up to a certain extent, perhaps to promote it. However, for Richard Forster, innovation is not entirely so, think he, innovation is to attack between the defender and a fierce competition in the struggle, in order to keep everlasting, even the most successful enterprises also need to initiate their own "innovative" attack.
