So, back in 2006, I started a blog for admins called The Executive Assistant’s Toolbox, where I shared tips and tricks for success in the field. Shockingly, that blog got really popular really fast. My blog was actually purchased by a start-up company (an online community for admins) and I was hired to help build it.

I mentioned in a previous blog post that I had accepted a full time role in corporate training at a local financial services firm here in Denver. While working a full time position, I was also still speaking and training at conferences and onsite at various corporations. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past two years.

Earlier this year, I was asked to emcee one of the largest conferences in the world for administrative professionals, APC. Members have the option to sign up and receive blog posts directly in their email inbox as soon as they are published. That’s where this photo was taken.). Can you tell when someone is faking confidence?

It’s not just because I’ve been writing this blog for over 5 years (any Joe-schmoe off the street can do this, you know!). Or start a blog like this one (as I said, anyone can!). Read books and blogs, take classes online and in-person, let your expertise spawn from the expertise of others. How do you do this?

Or start a blog! Offer to present on a topic of interest at a local industry conference or meeting of your professional association. Your mentee’s youthful inexperience can actually provide you with a wealth of powerful insight…if you’re open to it. The written word is always a wonderful tool for reaching others. Train Others.
