.© Copyright Patricia Robb 2010 16 January, 2010 Calendar "ah ha" I was participating in a Harvard sponsored webinar with my boss the other day.

At our recent Annual Conference for Administrative Excellence , I surveyed 350 attendees about the topics they would like me to address at future conferences or training events. I wanted to know the areas the assistants were interested in growing and learning about. What is your learning preference? Learn to invest in yourself.

I arrange quite a few events and have realized the importance of reading and reviewing the contracts carefully, highlighting key dates. I had an event for November 7th and the contract was signed, sealed and delivered, but then I noticed the hotel had put the wrong date on the contract. What are the dates you can cancel by?

I am speaking this morning at an administrative event so looking forward to meeting some new assistants. The one good thing about speaking at an event where nobody knows me is, they have no idea whether my hair is supposed to be this dark. Some good advice to pass along: Never colour your hair the night before an event.

I am sure I could have done well as I have learned nearly everything there is to know about getting someone from point A to point B. I have seen some contracts for event planners and it seems like a lucrative career to get into. Another time I wanted to try a career in the travel business.

Networking at a conference does little good if you never speak with the person after the event. One thing Ive learned over the years is that an arsenal of compelling stories and anecdotes related to my career can be extremely useful. I choose to tell stories that I know others can relate to and maybe even learn from listening.
