Free up time, space, energy and money by getting your paperwork decluttered and organized!

Conquer your paper clutter once and for all with the techniques and strategies shared in Declutter Your Paperwork! Join executive coach Dr. Christine Hegstad and productivity consultant Lori Vande Krol as we help you clear away the excess in your paper piles, share tips and tools for creating your filing and organizing systems, and make the process lasting and even fun.

If you feel bogged down or overwhelmed by paper, we’ve designed this session with you in mind. Through our proven systems, practical activities, and inspiring before-and-after photos, you will leave this seminar with the information and resources to handle any piece of paper that comes your way. We will help you create personalized action plans and, if you wish, we will follow up with you to ensure you achieve your goals. Using our unique five-step process, you will seamlessly move through your paper challenges to create a clear and inviting desktop - as well as a fresh and energized frame of mind!

What You Will Learn:

The average person spends six weeks out of every year searching for misplaced items on their desks, in their drawers, and throughout their workspaces.

• Reduce the amount of incoming mail and paperwork;
• Eliminate endless scraps and random sticky notes;
• Determine what to shred and what to toss;
• Clarify how long to keep documents, receipts, and legal paperwork;
• Set up easy-to-maintain files;
• Design systems to track data and manage multiple projects;
• Put papers away without fear of forgetting them; and
• Create the foundation for a balanced and productive life!

With our proven systems, practical activities, and inspiring before-and-after photos, you will leave this interactive seminar with the information and resources to handle any piece of paper that comes your way. We will help you create your personalized action plan, determine what steps to take next, and follow up with you (if you wish) to ensure you achieve your goals.

What Participants are Saying: 

"I just wanted to let you know you have succeeded where all before you have failed. I seemed to be incapable of paying my bills on time. Well, it was proven to me this evening that you have me on the path to doing just that. Before your seminar, no matter what method I tried, something always got missed. Tonight I paid a bill that will arrive on time for the first time ever. I am truly a changed man, and it feels good - MUCH EASIER with your systems and insights!! A thousand Thank You's!"

        -- Kurt Bingham, Metro Locksmith, Des Moines, Iowa

"After this class, I went right home and cleaned out some old papers and took care of some filing that I had been putting off. I also sent a great deal of excess paper to the shredder. Your class has given me the impetus to get moving!"

         -- Karen Rumelhart, Des Moines, Iowa

"Thank you for your recent Declutter Your Paperwork class. The tips and tools you provided are working great, and I am making progress towards the goal I set for myself during the class - a clean, neat, organized and stress-free environment. I would recommend your workshop to others and, in fact, am sending three of my friends to your next class!"

         -- Scott Krueger, Krueger Bp, Des Moines, Iowa 

"It has only been a week since I took Declutter Your Paperwork and I have already found more than $600 that was lost and forgotten amidst the paper piles!"

         -- N., Des Moines, Iowa

"I found this class incredibly helpful and beneficial - and I consider myself pretty organized! I review my workbook from the class at least once a week and am making a lot of progress in my office. Next, I'm going to get my paperwork at home in order. Thank you for the great class!" 

        -- Katie Roth, Portico HR, Des Moines, Iowa

"I thoroughly enjoyed the “Anti-Clutter” workshop and found it immensely beneficial.  I came away with a lot to think about regarding my office (both personal and business).  For the first time in a very long time, I feel a glimmer of hope!   I’m spreading the gospel about your next program!"

         -- Debra Storey Salowitz, Strategic Relocation Solutions, West Des Moines, Iowa

"Thank you for your Declutter Your Paperwork class! In the few weeks since the class I have made significant progress: I've eliminated the pile of papers on my floor, organized my files, set up a multi-tiered tray on my desk, started using the tickler file, and have shredded a lot. The class was very beneficial and pushed me to do some things I wouldn't have otherwise. Your follow up call was also beneficial in helping me to adjust some things that weren’t working perfectly and to encourage me to continue working with my new systems and tools. My desktop is much less cluttered and, above all, my time is spent more efficiently and effectively.. Thank you for the good nudge, the encouragement, and the support!"

         -- Kathryn Bradley, Mid-Iowa Health Foundation, Des Moines, Iowa
