| OVERVIEW: Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) improve efficiency and reduce errors and risk. When employees understand their roles and responsibilities, they can work autonomously. An effective SOP can also instill institutional knowledge, which is critical for any organization. |
|
| Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are essential for ensuring consistency, efficiency, and knowledge retention within any organization. By providing clear, step-by-step instructions for routine tasks, SOPs minimize errors, enhance compliance with regulations, and empower employees to work independently. Yet, despite their value, many organizations procrastinate in developing them, relying instead on informal, undocumented processes. This webinar will explore the importance of SOPs, the risks of delaying their creation, and the impact they can have on productivity and institutional knowledge. |
| |
| Attendees will learn practical strategies for writing, updating, and effectively training teams on SOPs. We’ll break down the key components of a well-structured SOP and introduce a simple, actionable framework for developing them. |
| |
| Whether you are starting from scratch or refining existing procedures, this webinar presentation will equip you with the tools to create clear, effective SOPs that enhance operational efficiency and reduce risk to your records and archives program. |

I started my career in public service in 1999 as a District Court Clerk which eventually led to becoming the Chief Deputy City Clerk for Sparks, NV. Mentoring and education are the best parts of my job! I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Organization and Project Management as well as Associate’s degrees in General Education and Criminal Justice. I earned my Certified Records Manager Certificate from ICRM, Master Municipal Clerk certificate from IIMC, and am a Certified Public Official in Nevada. Away from work I love spending time with my family. We enjoy traveling, camping, concerts, and exploring new places. I’ve been to 39 states and plan to visit all 50 someday.
