One thing I wanted to talk about today is the many skills you develop when you work in the administrative profession.

This is an important skill to develop for any individual who has to work with others. Use assertive communication techniques. Having an “attitude of taking charge” is not necessarily the same as the “skill of taking charge.” It starts with having the attitude, then developing certain skills. Take Charge. Joan Burge.

Managing expectations takes skill and practise. But acquiring this insight takes another of my favourite Power Skills: effective communication.

I hear managers or Human Resource Professionals say it doesn’t take any special skill to be an administrative assistant. Stress reducer. I hear it from both sides of the desk. I hear assistants talk about their job or the profession as if it is no big deal. These people are naïve, to say the least. Intuitive. A mind reader.

We’re all familiar with the comfort zone: That risk free place of ease and certainty with no surprises. It’s always the same in the comfort zone—nothing bad happens, but nothing particularly good either. The comfort zone can be a dangerous place, especially as an Administrative Professional in the modern working world.

But once you get out of the prison of Doing, spending time in Assess and Decide, “more” will lose its meaning as a measurement tool. Of course, deadlines are always looming and the very thought of the word conjures up stress and chaos. You just somehow achieve what needs to be done with less stress. Ok, this was a teaser.

We didn’t have the tools and experience to analyze those behaviors, we took them for granted. I was putting to work some skills, but without putting my soul, my self or my life into it.
