A Great Day's Work

SEPTEMBER 4, 2016

I started my blog A Great Day’s Work to share resources with administrative professionals in an effort to help them be successful in their career and inspire them to lead in the workplace. The association I have participated in the longest is the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP).

As I was doing research for other articles on this blog I came across the International Association of Administrative Professionals' website ("IAAP") and was reminded of the advantages of being part of a professional organization. I was previously a member of IAAP when I was at another firm. It helped to have that support system.

There is a local chapter for IAAP but I don't find it to have the content and structure that I'm looking for. Please note that I am a member of IAAP Las Vegas Valley chapter (there are three different chapters in our city – I just had to find the right chapter for my needs). I am trying to find a local networking association.

We aren't in the same office anymore, but we now meet monthly to go to our local chapter's IAAP dinner meeting and then spend the drive home catching up on what each of us is up to. And the same for another person I worked with. When I was younger I became good friends with someone I worked with and then I became their boss.
