Another gazelle here

About the Graceful Gazelle

You are like a Graceful Gazelle. Someone that always knows what is going on in and out of the office, whether it is the latest gossip, where everyone is going on holiday or what happens next in the soaps. You move around the office with graceful elegance and all-seeing eyes. You can be out of the office with an amazing turn of speed, especially if your favourite client is visiting a colleague.

Occasionally you leave something to the last minute such as a telephone call that had to be made by lunch time because the person was out this afternoon. This is not the norm for you because the Graceful Gazelle likes everything done well before time. You know that when it is necessary you can rely on a graceful flicker of your eye lashes to gain a little bit more time from the male of the species.

How the Graceful Gazelle can improve at work

The Graceful Gazelle knows how to react in a crisis. Such as when to offer a shoulder to cry on or when the boss needs his coffee black because he was out with a client last night. This knowing, caring attitude is much admired but it sometimes brings out a jealous streak in colleagues.

You keep your files in order and your desk is always left neat and tidy at the end of the day. There is one area you can improve on and that is the way you prioritise the work that has to be done. Sometimes you just miss a time deadline because you complete a piece of work you like doing instead of something you don’t.

Ideas to help the Graceful Gazelle glide through her work

Don’t have any more close shaves at work and save up those favours with your boss for when you want to go home early on a Friday. To make sure everything is completed in priority order try using the Avery Part Files. These help you sort out and prioritise your work at the start of the day with one section for each job. They have an elasticated fastener so that nothing is lost but it is still easy enough to add in extra information as it arrives. These files have other uses such as keeping agendas and supporting documents together so your boss only has one file for all their meetings this week.
