Making the Most of Your Sedgwick Office Hours

In order to fully utilize your time during your appointment with Sedgwick’s administrative center, there are a few pre-office hour things you should consider doing.

There are several steps that can help facilitate an effective engagement:

Know what you want out of it all: 

What are your plans during those office hours? Are there any precise queries that need to be answered which is why you require thinking through, or do people normally offer support over online platforms regarding professional development? When you have set goals how they would look like?

Collate necessary materials: 

If your intention involves clarifying a particular project or process, just gather any relevant documents or notes ahead of time. This way, it becomes easier to explain everything while saving precious moments during these meetings.

Create questions for yourself: 

Make sure that each question is straight and pointed as it concerns a certain aspect under study.

Participating in Office Hours: Be an Active Contributor

So, you’ve signed up for an office hour and are ready to rock! Here are ways you can have a positive impact on this:

  • Respect Other People’s Time: Be punctual (in the virtual sense) and avoid going on and on; particularly if it is an open forum.
  • Active Listening: In a group setting like this, listen keenly to other people’s questions and discussions. While participating in this session, you may find answer to your question or gain insight from others’ experiences.
  • Constructive Contribution: This means that as a participant in an open forum, be actively involved by sharing views based on personal experience.

Beyond the Session Post Office Hour Follow Up

You should not stop interacting after the office hour ends!

  • Take Down Notes: Write down some important takeaways, action items or follow-up questions while the session is ongoing. You can always refer back to these notes later.
  • Express Your Appreciation: Show thankfulness towards those who facilitated such sessions. This small act demonstrates gratitude and fosters relationships.

Going Beyond the Basics: Making the Most of Office Hours

Now that you know all there is about attending Sedgwick office hours, let us see how we can make them more useful:

A. Non-traditional Ways of Using Office Hours:

  1. Shadowing a Leader: Are you interested in a particular leadership position? You can reach out to a leader with office hours and ask if you could “shadow” them during their session. It would be very enlightening to observe how they think and act in terms of decision-making.
  2. Group Brainstorming: Is your team grappling with a complex problem? Consider scheduling an office hour dedicated to having the concerned leader or department conduct a group brainstorming exercise. This approach encourages collaboration, which sparks new ideas.
  3. Peer Mentorship: Never underestimate peer-to-peer learning! For example, if you have similar career plans like one of your colleagues does, it may be helpful to both of you attend office hours together – this provides grounds for mutual encouragement and knowledge sharing.

B. Strategies for Overcoming Reluctance to Attend Office Hours:

Feeling uneasy about going for office hours? Here are some ways to combat this fear:

  1. On general topic sessions or open forums if you haven’t been there before, as this will help familiarize yourself with its set up while paying attention to other people actions.
  2. Concentrate on the Benefits: Remember that these are meant for your good only! Don’t forget why you signed up for it and what you stand to gain.
  3. Don’t be scared to ask “basic” questions: There is no such thing as a stupid question during office hours. If anything is confusing, feel free to ask questions.

C. Advocating for Office Hours:

Are there any topics that you feel do not have enough office hours dedicated to them? Do not shy away from advocating for them! Speak with your manager or relevant team leads about your interest in the matter. The more employees are asking for it, the better Sedgwick will consider adding on some other departments.
