Low time input but big impact

I want to maximise your impact with ideas that are easy to produce but have a big impact. These activities are force multipliers for your reuse program! Just pick one to do every week or month and you will be chipping away at culture change without much effort.

We've recently produced a report looking at the reuse and surplus asset sector in universities, some of which are based in the USA. One of the common things we discovered is that most of the projects, if not all of them, have some sort or student intern, student helpers, or student employees.

This quick and informative guide is going to show you one of the best tricks for finding a match for your surplus assets on the estate.

It’s really important to try and find a match for your surplus assets before they get moved to storage, as to avoid double-handling, or having the asset sat gathering dust in a corridor somewhere, or even worse, outside!

One part of your tool kit for culture change should be organisational announcements. In this article you can find links to all of our article templates to use in your organisation to help embed reuse. 

Changing culture is hard! Really hard! Before setting off you should develop a communication plan with your comms team. 

As part of the communication plan you should develop regular communications, especially in the first 12-18 months whilst embedding your reuse system into practice.

This collection of templates will help you to promote your furniture reuse program across your organisation. 

Here are some examples of the templates you can find:

• Reuse program launch template
• 'Look how well we are doing' template
• Building Clearance announcement

Let’s set the scene. You implement a project and you start seeing the first benefits. The first early adopters start taking part. You start getting those benefits you were talking about right at the start.

You go on a massive journey with the implementation team. You go through the highs and the lows with the implementation team. And finally, your project's been released into the wild, and you're getting those promised victories.

One of our customers was doing really well on our reuse system. I thought it would be a great idea to do a case study.  I called them up and the conversation went like this.
