This book is somehow a checklist of what to do and what not to do in your office. But, it is just that; nothing deeper. I would say that it is complete, and it is for mid 1990s. But, in mid 2000s, with computers and e-mail to 'eat' most of our office time, it need some enhancement in these areas. It covers them, but it focus 85% on traditional and 15% on electronic office.

I thought the ideas and tips were well divided into chapters in this book. It was easy to look for hints in a specific topic area. However, the read was so quick that I found myself looking for more insight into the ideas behind some of the suggestions made. I have read other books that have been more detailed about the overall organization process and gave more concise directions on how to get started down finding your organizational flow. This book is a great organizational review tool for AFTER you have incorporated your personal organizational process. A good reminder of healthy organization tips, though, not necessarily a pool of original organizational hints.

Ronni Eisenberg’s book demonstrates how your work habits can be your best friends or your worst enemies when it comes to organizing your office productively. The book is a mixture of common-sense suggestions and useful organizational tips. She includes helpful hints for home-office workers and organizational tips for those who use personal digital devices. At times, it’s a little too intricate (you may feel you are getting detailed instructions on how to tie your shoes), however, it also offers organizational gems....

This book is incredible! After years of trying to organize, missing promotions because of my disorganization (losing items, unpolished image...), I have become reasonably organized. I have even had a professional organizer try to help me, to no avail.

Naturally, not every tip will apply to every office. I was pleasantly surprised to realize that many were generic enough to be informative, but instructional enough to help.

At less than ten dollars, this is a must-have.

I am very organized and always looking for new ways to improve efficiency, organization and cleanliness. I have a home office so I need to keep it neat, and I apply organization and cleanliness to my entire household. This book offered me nothing new. Maybe I've already heard all the tips from Franklin Covey and Julie Morgenstern. If you haven't heard of either of those, the book may help you, but if you're already pretty organized, it's repeat.
