Office Dynamics

APRIL 6, 2017

It began several years ago when I started working for Mr. H as a temp. I’ve been an executive assistant for several years and I’ve received a lot of training but I’m not a facilitator or a trainer. Administrative assistants go above and beyond and take on new assignments with little to no background, training or experience.
