Top 10 office items you should never throw away

Our vision is to make reuse mainstream.

Our customers want to make reuse mainstream in their organisations.

Our customers are generally trying t change culture in organisations for the better. 

Culture change doesn’t just happen when you work, it should happen even while you’re asleep.

I think, the best way to make that happen is through a newsletter.

The newsletter is a powerful tool for culture change. If you do it right, the newsletter requires minimum time input for maximum impact. It is a fantastic communication channel that will help you target your messages to those that matter, cut through the noise of the organisation and ensure that colleagues remember you and even follow what you want them to do!

Each month we gather and share useful tips and tools; and this time it’s all about stepping out of your comfort zone.

Why? Well, while staying in your comfort zone usually results in a consistent and steady performance, stepping out of it can create the conditions for optimal performance.

Time, time, time...

When managing a large building clearance, it can often be resource intensive to catalogue exact details and upload a picture of every single asset.

Warp It is not designed to manage assets in the traditional sense, in fact, it was designed to redistribute assets that were surplus to requirements.

However, we’ve found that it’s versatile and that due to the framework of the system, our members are using it for both purposes.

We are pleased to welcome not just one, but two Warp It pioneers for this in depth interview.

Paul Nelson works as the Environmental Sustainability Manager at North Tyneside Council, with Laura Manley assisting him in her role on the Environmental Sustainability Team.

When there are large numbers of items ready to reuse on Warp it, you may want to alter the viewing options. 

We're always taking feedback into account to make the Warp It system even better.

This article is me speaking to you personally, sharing a piece of content that I believe will have a huge and immediate positive impact on you.
