Before the advent of the free address, anonymous office whenever you arrived in a work space there were signs on the doors and desks that said things like, ‘Director of Something or Other’.When you walked inside an executive’s office the person’s name plaque was on their desk. The ‘director’ sign stayed with the room while the personal sign traveled with the worker from post to post.
Signs are important, a sign on your work room door makes you stand a little straighter and think in a business-like way every time you see it, even if you work in a home office with no co-workers around. In the home office it stakes out your working territory and sends the message that behind that sign you are at work; when they disturb you it’s costing somebody money. Signs remind everyone, including you of your place in the organization and your responsibilities.
This system of signs was developed way before lap tops, thumb drives and web-based back up information storage, so you might think they are obsolete, but that’s your head talking. Even if you communicate with your team via group emails your body wants clearly marked signs to navigate your work space because it helps you feel secure within the team hierarchy. When people feel they belong and are supported by their group they perform better; signs do that and having a biography and photo on the company website doesn’t carry that kind of emotional oomph.
