Go Beyond What You Can Do. Develop How You Operate.
Administrative professionals have always been expected to master the tools of the job. But knowing how to do the work is only part of what determines your impact.
Your greatest value often shows in the moments when there isn’t a procedure to follow. Priorities change. An executive needs your judgment. Stakeholders want different outcomes. A difficult conversation needs to be handled with confidence. A problem has no obvious solution.
These are the moments when your Power Skills show.
MCAP: Master Certified Administrative Professional was created to develop the advanced capabilities that help administrative professionals move beyond task mastery and contribute at a higher level.
The 7 Power Skills of an MCAP
Your MCAP curriculum is built around seven interconnected Power Skills:
1. Energy Management
Manage your energy, engagement, mindset, boundaries, and performance with greater intention.
2. Resiliency and Adaptability
Build the ability to adjust, recover, learn, and keep moving forward when priorities, expectations, and circumstances change.
3. Intrapersonal and Interpersonal Intelligence
Increase self-awareness, manage your responses, read situations, navigate different personalities, and strengthen professional relationships.
4. Business Acumen and Service Orientation
Understand the business behind your work, connect your responsibilities to organizational priorities, anticipate needs, and create greater value.
5. Communication
Communicate with greater clarity, intention, adaptability, and influence across different people and situations.
6. Collaboration
Build stronger partnerships, recognize and leverage the strengths of others, break down silos, and create better outcomes together.
7. Critical Creative Thinking
Strengthen your judgment, evaluate information, solve the right problems, generate possibilities, and bring forward recommendations instead of simply reporting problems.
This Is Not Another Webinar Series
MCAP is designed for active development.
Throughout the program, you will assess yourself, work through realistic professional situations, participate in discussions and exercises, practice new approaches, and identify specific ways to apply what you learn to your work.
Your comprehensive 75-page MCAP workbook supports the experience with assessments, guided reflection, scenario-based exercises, communication practice, business analysis, collaboration activities, and structured problem-solving.
You aren’t enrolling to hear about seven Power Skills.
You’re enrolling to develop them.
