They coordinate schedules, handle employee issues, negotiate with suppliers and work hard to ensure everyone gets along within the company culture.

I talk to friends in the travel industry. I lack the necessary detail-oriented skills to turn it into a reality. But there’s a big difference between that and having a budget, a packing list and an hour-by-hour breakdown of where we will be in the course of such a trip, all of which I need to make it executable as a side hustle.

Not a confident negotiator? Let them do it for you. Probably not. This again is something we can outsource.

Try to attend training courses that are offered for executive admin as much as you can (even if it is just one time a year and you travel to another city for it). If training/travel aren’t an option it may be a goal to strive for as a reward for a job well done. This group is great on skill building. Here are my thoughts.
