Question: ”I think it would be interesting to attend one of the larger conferences for admins and office managers, but I’m sure it would involve some travel, missed time from work and the company footing the bill.

When I worked corporately, travel planning was one of my favorite parts of my job, and I still love it today. COVID-19 brought the travel industry to its knees, but as vaccinations roll out and restrictions loosen, we’re getting closer to a place where we can move freely again. The basics of travel planning still apply.
