WITH A CHERRY ON TOP!

SHERRY’S CREATIVE SIDE

OUTSIDE OF THE RESUME• WELCOME TO A TINY SNIPPET OF MY CREATIVE SIDE OF WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE AS THE “WITH

A CHERRY ON TOP” TO THE TASKS REQUESTED OF ME TO FULLY MEET MY POSITION AS AN OFFICE MANAGER. TO DEFINE THE TITLE OF THIS SLIDESHOW MEANS TO ME WHAT I BELIEVE WE ALL INSPIRE TO ACHIEVE WHILE WORKING THE DAY TO DAY. WHY STOP AT ORDINARY? THE BUCK DOES NOT STOP HERE! YOU HAVE THE FREEDOM TO SUCCEED ON A VARIETY OF LEVELS…SO WHY NOT LET IT SHINE THROUGH YOUR WORK, NOT JUST SOMETHING YOU EXPRESS ON A PERSONAL ASPECT. EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH SHOULD LEAVE A MARK WITH AN IMPRINT OF YOUR MASTERPIECE.

• END RESULTS IS WHAT DRIVES MY SATISFACTION TO PERSEVERE KNOWING THAT I OVER-EXCEEDED THE EXPECTATIONS. WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO, GIVE IT THAT ‘CHERRY ON TOP’…

• IT’S THE LITTLE EXTRAS. THE SMILE YOU CAN BRING TO SOMEONE’S DAY. GET INVOLVED, STAY ENGAGED AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS IN AND OUTSIDE OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE. PRIDE YOURSELF TO PAY IT FORWARD.

COMMAND CENTER

CREATING A COMMAND CENTER, EMPLOYEE INFO CENTER OR BREAK-ROOM SPACE FOR

COLLEAGUES CAN BECOME A FRIENDLY MEETING AREA OR “ALL-IN” FORUM TO KEEP

ORGANIZED FUNCTIONALITY.NOTICE THE FUNKY COFFEE PEG BOARD HOLDER, COMFY COFFEE CHAIRS AND

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT WALL TO WELCOME EMPLOYEES/VISITORS.

COMMON AREACOMMON AREA: ALL DEPARTMENTS ARE WELCOME TO UTILIZE THIS SPACE FOR COLLATING PAPERS, OFFICE SUPPLIES, RETRIEVE MAIL/EQUIPMENT/BUSINESS CARDS, SIMPLE INFO INSTRUCTIONS,

LAMINATE, ETC. TO SIMPLIFY THE ACCESSIBILITY WITHOUT GUARDED SPACE.

IDEA WAS FORMED SO OTHER DEPTS/INDIVIDUALS SHARE THE

WORKSPACE, HENCE THE ‘COMMON AREA’ WITHOUT RELYING ON NEARBY

COLLEAGUE’S DESK TO ‘BORROW’ OPEN SUPPLIES. YES, I AM ONE OF THOSE WHO

LABEL THEIR PERSONAL PENS!

FUNDRAISING OR EMPLOYEE INTERACTION

LABELINGLABELING, SEPARATING FILES OR

CREATING INFO BINDERS ARE GOOD IDEAS TO INCORPORATE

INTO THE WORKPLACE.

PERSONALIZINGPERSONALIZING! THIS IDEA CAME TO ME ACTUALLY TO REDUCE THE

STYROFOAM CUPS USAGE AND CUT COSTS. BY PURCHASING AND

PERSONALIZING THE COFFEE MUGS ASSISTED IN SAVING $$ AND EARTH FRIENDLY! NO CUP, NO SIP. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF VISITORS OF

COURSE. I KEPT A STASH HANDY OF DISPOSABLE ONES.

AT THE END OF THE DAY…VALUE YOURSELF. KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER, DON’T

SKIMP ON THE GOOD STUFF AND ALWAYS PUT YOUR BEST FOOT FORWARD. THESE ARE ONLY A FEW SNIPPETS THAT I

WAS ABLE TO SCROUNGE PHOTOS OF TO SHARE. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DON’T PHOTOGRAPH EVERY

ACCOMPLISHMENT, IDEA OR MOVE THAT WE MAKE ON A DAILY BASIS SINCE THAT WOULD TAKE TOO MUCH TIME OUT OF OUR LIVES. IT IS THE PRIDE WE TAKE AND DEDICATION

WE PROFIT FROM WITH A CHERRY ON TOP!
