Speak up : Greet you co-workers as you meet them through the day. Shut up : Listen more than you speak. Co-workers will gain confidence in you if they see you react calmly during difficult times. Know your own weaknesses : Don’t get caught up in gossip. Take an interest in others. Demonstrate a caring attitude.

Add to that the companies that are stingy with annual bonuses or raises, managers who routinely take all the credit for themselves and benefits constantly being trimmed back and it's no wonder we have a problem with ethics in the workplace these days. Don't interrupt when someone else is talking, don't gossip and don't exclude anyone.

What’s your existing relationship like with your manager? In the EA/ manager relationship, communication is something that should be the number one priority. And for those of you that get a good 70% of information out of your managers, it bears the question as to why you’re not getting the other 30%?

It got me thinking about the impact of the show on our profession, it certainly has made people more aware of what our predecessors had to put up with from their male bosses!

Your resume should always be able to reflect that you’ve kept up on the latest training and skills. Attend an event or sign up for an online class that really challenges you. Becoming too comfortable in your career and with your skills can set you up for problems if you suddenly find yourself out of work. Pick up the phone.

That is because when people with goals wake up, they are focused on the steps they need to take to achieve their goals. They don’t have time to get caught up in bad news, gossip, jealously, waste less conversation, or even just being on Facebook all day. But then choose to go down a better path. That is my wish for 2016!
