YOU
THINK YOU ARE SO SMART
We
learned a valuable lesson today. It had occurred to us that we were
using only about 50% of the tools available to us in Microsoft outlook.
We contracted with Amanda Lovatt of Lovatt Effective Systems (www.LovattEffectiveSystemS.com)
to spend the morning with us to better understand outlook. We were
wrong. We found that we were using only about 25%. We experienced many
Ah ha’s this morning.
 After the morning course
we made many adjustments in our systems and are confident that the
efficiencies and time savings we will experience will far outweigh the
fees paid in a very short time.
So, don’t think you are s smart that you do not need
to continuously update your knowledge. Be open to investing in training
even when you have been working with a particular system for a long
time. Like us, you may just learn something.
The adventure is the best part of the journey.

"It was wonderful having you amongst
us! You shared some of your wisdom and humour which the ladies
really enjoyed. I visited a fellow women entrepreneur the other
day and guess what she had on her head???? She purchased a
display cordless phone with head gear...oh yes...and she smiled and
said that she didn't go the Women Entrepreneurs for nothing...she
obviously took advantage of your advice! She said she couldn't believe
the time and steps she saves in a day since she's had it. She is
very grateful for your advice.
Thank you so much for presenting to us. It is evident that you
will take your business to any level you wish to!"

"Just a note to say how pleased I am with the
assistance you provided me in organizing my office. Not only are
my files in perfect order, I have been able to maintain them easily
using the processes you set up. In addition, the system you
taught me to keep my desk organized has worked like a charm...I do not
know how I stayed in business this long without you!
Please pass my name along to anyone looking for a reference for your
excellent work"
Client
To
Do the Impossible:
My office was a
long-standing out-of-control situation! As a teacher of young children,
a curriculum chair and a consultant I had a variety of issues - filing,
storage, and a variety of media. There were flat things, round things,
light things and heavy things that ALL needed to find a "home" in an
organized way.
Amanda
Lovatt was the angel of organization that came into my office. She was
patient and creative with solutions to help me with the variety of
challenges I face. Always positive and calm she charted the course for
an office space that I now enjoy. I know that the organization is not
just a surface-fix, but also a resourceful long-term solution.
Thanks,
Amanda. I think of you every day when I walk into my office. I have
even received a compliment from a co-worker who previously felt that it
was impossible to ever see an improvement here!

I
just wanted to say how very much I enjoyed your Seminar on Organization
tips, etc. Your tips were simple, practical and easy to maintain. This
will go a long way in my life, especially with two little kids and the
volumes of stuff that they have spread around.
What
I most enjoyed about your seminar is that you speak from experience and
your love of the topic and enthusiasm made the seminar so much more
enjoyable.
Many
thanks,

Amanda did an amazing job
organizing our “junk” drawers. She was able to quickly come up with
ideas to organize the various items in the drawers. She was also
able to suggest and implement a better way for us to keep track of our
upcoming commitments and appointments so we wouldn’t miss deadlines and
commitments. Finally, the solutions she implemented were easily
extensible and I have quickly found that I can organize even more
previously hard to place items.
An organizing project involves a
close collaboration between the client and organizer. Amanda has a
relaxed, friendly and very efficient style, which makes the process
enjoyable.
Working with Amanda and the end
result has been an extremely positive experience. We are now able
to save time, reduce stress and stay on top of our commitments.
Thanks Amanda!

Amanda worked for me
at Nortel for approximately one year. She reported to me as first level
manager. Her responsibilities included project and people management as
well as ensuring the technical integrity of the work her team was
responsible for.
In Amanda's project management role she was responsible for planning,
coordination and maintenance of project status. She consistently
displayed excellent project management, organizational and influencing
skills in her day-day operation. She put the appropriate project
control structures in place, pulled together the overall project plans
and closely tracked those plans. She also introduced a badly
needed software development process, including document templates.
In Amanda's development role as a manager she was given
responsibility for 8 features. She achieved a very aggressive
hiring ramp, structured a team of 13 people appropriately and got
sub-teams vectored onto the required features. Within four months, the
team was up to speed and had preliminary designs and schedules in place
for all of the features. This was accomplished in an environment
of significant organizational and architectural churn. It was a
very tough quarter and I was very impressed with the degree of
professionalism and sense of humour she maintained throughout the
quarter.
Amanda consistently displays excellent people and project management
skills and was able to make the necessary technical contributions to
get her team moving in the right direction. I have very much enjoyed
working with Amanda and would see her as an asset to any team.

Amanda
was a pleasure to work with. She came up with fabulous solutions for
our cramped quarters. Every time we use our cupboards it's one less
annoyance in our lives! The cupboards are fabulous and it has made a
huge difference - I actually enjoy looking for Tupperware now because I
can find the lids!!
