office politics - office blunder...
By Colleen Williams

   

With numerous office blunders being made each week, it could only be a matter of time before it begins to affect our careers.

A survey carried out on behalf of Post-It Notes found that 80% of women worry about the affect that an office blunder could have upon their career development.

The most common fear of problem was forwarding an email to the wrong person, something that 78% of us have done at some point, often due to having the wrong name. This problem was often continued into the boardroom, with 66% of us getting a colleagues name wrong in a meeting.

 

Over 64% of us admit using spellchecker and still getting the wrong word which is then used in an important document, as well as 57% of us that then go on to accidentally delete a document.

With 46% being caught gossiping about a colleague and 39% not attaching a document to an email the list covered all aspects of errors to be made in the office.

Aside from getting drunk on an office night out, or having an inappropriate crush, the thing that we are least worried about is tripping over whilst giving a presentation. This is something that apparently worries just 18% of us.

Despite our love of gadgets and the fact that they should be easing our lives, it seems that they are actually a lot more trouble if we get it wrong.

Behaviour expert, Judi James states that these types of blunders are not actually classed as ‘accidents’, they occur because we are using our brains too much creating an overload. They are working faster than they should be as we try to cover more and more work in a shorter space of time. "Rushing creates impulsive or instinctive behaviours, meaning we act before we think. Stress will have the same effect, making us clumsy and less intellectual."

When in the workplace, creative thinking is vitally important. By organising time more efficiently and making notes of tasks to be carried out, the workload becomes more balanced, allowing an organised use of time to the best productivity.
