Essential, Up-to-date & Interactive

Session One – Managing Your Career – Moving from Assistant/Admin to Strategic Partner

Working as a strategic partner requires a mind shift in terms of how we approach our profession. This session will pull back the curtain to see what is needed to move from supporting others to working in conjunction with others.

What is the difference between Strategic Partner and Assistant
What attributes do I need to have (and where do I have room for improvement)
Leadership qualities and how to demonstrate them daily
Thinking and acting strategically to show your value

Session Two – Managing Workplace Relationships & Dealing with Difficult people

Things have changed. People have changed. Successful work relationships build successful careers, but it isn’t easy to do in this complex working environment.

Troubleshooting through everyday crisis
Learning to be a conscious communicator
Maximize your Emotional Intelligence
Working with difficult people

Session Three – Managing the Office in the Hybrid Workplace

We are typically the backbone of the office by ensuring that everything runs smoothly. Without us, chaos ensues. But how do we learn how to do things better, faster, smarter when things are changing each day?

Meeting management – how to ensure meetings are running smoothly both virtually and in-person
Corporate governance – whether you take minutes or just take notes, what do you need to capture and why
Work interruptions and disruptions. What you need to know to ensure they don’t ruin the flow of the office

Session Four – Managing Your Career & Future

The future looks bright, but only if we are prepared to adjust (yes, again) and pivot as needed. Can you see what the future holds for you? Are you positioned to maximize your opportunities?

What the future of admin holds for you
Things to do and things not to do to ensure you are seen as valuable to your company
Perform a SWOT analysis to ensure you are self-aware and ready for what comes next
Is Alexa really stealing your job?
