Has your position become more vital in day to day operations, or has your Executive become more independent in managing their day?
Due to recent world events, the Administrative Professionals industry is facing a critical turning point. It’s now more important than ever to establish your role as one that does more than assist.
Administrative Professionals possess the ability to be the Center of Influence when it comes to organization, planning, and people skills. When your Executive is focused on the bottom-line, having a strategic partnership with you is tremendously beneficial.
You have the potential to direct large groups of people, facilitate short-term and long-term projects, and perhaps most importantly, help your business achieve goals.
Is your Executive leveraging your role to provide you with this ability?
- Do you know what it takes to become an information flow manager (more on this below)?
- How often does your Executive debrief you on meetings after they have been held?
- Is your Executive good at keeping you “in the loop” as to what is on the horizon?
Communication issues with Executives is a common challenge many Assistants face. It’s also one that can be resolved by understanding each other’s work habits and communication styles.
Once that has been established, a partnership can be formed. By working together you will develop a deeper level of understanding and appreciation for each other’s work values, assets and communication preferences. This strategic partnership leads to an information flow. Assistants who have reached this place with their Executive often receive much job satisfaction as they are more fulfilled in their roles.
