ENHANCE YOUR SKILLS AND COMMUNICATION
Secretaries and administrative assistants perform a variety of administrative and clerical duties necessary to run an organization efficiently and as the reliance on technology continues to expand in offices, the role of the office professional has greatly evolved. They serve as information and communication managers for an office; plan and schedule meetings and appointments; prepare agendas, organize and maintain paper and electronic files; manage projects; conduct research; and disseminate information. They also may handle travel and guest arrangements.

Secretaries therefore work under a lot of pressure, especially when they work for more than one manager, administrator or other important workers. In addition secretaries have to do many jobs at the same time, deal with a lot of interruptions and have to handle many people with different and sometimes difficult personalities.

This two day workshop will deal one on one with the delegates, utilising not only theoretical tools but focusing strongly on practical examples and exercises, whilst at the same time utilising real issues to demonstrate improved efficiencies in dealing with their responsibilities and workload, effective verbal and written communication skills and enhanced skills in dealing with conflict and difficult situations.

They will have a clear understanding of their key role in the organisation and how their improved skills in assisting their bosses and teams can be used to work together towards achieving the goals of the business.
