Spring Cleaning Isn’t Just For Spring
Published
I think about cleaning out my closet every time I attempt to walk in it. And that is the problem—I can barely walk in it.
But I can’t simply organize things and throw out what I no longer want or need. As with many things in life, there are other stakeholders involved. My husband would not be amused if I threw out his Chicago Blackhawks jersey or his Cubs baseball hat. The closet must work for all parties involved.
The prospect of organizing brings up some questions. What closet paraphernalia should we invest in? How many shoe organizers do we need? More shelving perhaps?
What should stay and what should go? Who defines what goes where? And what habits do we need to get into to keep the closet in good working order?
All of these questions got me thinking about a prospect researcher’s processes. As a prospect researcher, you need to achieve end goals in a way that is most efficient yet effective for you and your organization. You need a reliable moves management cycle. Your prospect research process needs to work as well for you as my closet needs to work for me.
