Merriam-Webster.com defines express as
1) said or given in a clear way and
2) traveling with few or no stops along the way
We intend for these Express Training sessions to be just that:
clear information delivered in a concise format. Janet Jackson, owner of Organization Solutions, LLC, is a consultant and trainer on workplace organization, productivity and efficiency. Join her each month for one hour as she shares one specific tool that you can learn and implement immediately!
One hour. One topic. Lots of A-ha!s
December 2024: No Express Training – Enjoy the Season!
There’s no Express Training this month but you can still learn one topic, in one hour, with lots of A-ha!s and for the same price! Just peruse our Content Catalog and find a session that interests you.
January 15, 2025: Ask the Organizers 2025
We’re excited about our 4th Annual Ask the Organizers event in honor of “Get Organized Month”. I will again be inviting some of my favorite professional organizers to join me for this Express Training. We’ll each share a tip or two, but you also get to shape the content. Start thinking now about what organizing questions you have – at home, at work, or just life in general. We’ll tackle all that we can in our time together! As always, this is a free event and there will be lots of door prizes!
February 12, 2025: Excel: What you don’t know but should
AutoFill, Paste Link, Quick Access toolbar, Filtering. If any of those features are unfamiliar to you then you need to catch this session! In addition to those topics, Janet will share page layout tricks, her favorite A-ha! tips, and fan-favorite keyboard shortcuts.
March 12, 2025: PowerPoint: Tables of Organization
We’re all familiar with organization charts (or tables of organization) but perhaps you have never created one. Or, you’ve had to work in one that someone else created and found it painful! They don’t have to be complicated. In this session, Janet will share her preferred method for creating a table of organization, why she thinks every organization should have one (even soloprenuers!), and how to create one using PowerPoint.
April 9, 2025: Better Delegation
Love it or hate it, delegation is a skill we all need to develop (even if you think you don’t have anyone to delegate to). In this session we’ll talk about why we don’t, why we should, and how we can delegate effectively. Janet will share the tools she personally uses to direct others. Tools that are simple to understand, simple to implement, and simple to maintain. Plus, we’ll think outside the box to find ways to delegate that we might be overlooking!
May 14, 2025: Microsoft 365: Bookings
We’ll have our MS 365 guru, Nancy Kruschke, with us again to share Microsoft’s scheduling tool: Bookings. If you’re currently paying for an online scheduling tool, you may want to check out what Bookings has to offer and see if you can take advantage of a tool available to you as part of your Microsoft 365 subscription (saving you time and money!) And if you’re not already using an online scheduling tool, come check out why you might want to!
