But before you burn up your keyboard typing back a nasty message , let's look at the smarter way to respond: 1. But if the issue is time-sensitive, phone the person or talk to him or her face-to-face. Learn from it. Have a face-to-face conversation or phone call when you've had time to calm down. Walk away and sit on it.

Understanding Memory Before learning any memory improvement technique, it’s useful to first understand the three stages of memory: encoding, storage and retrieval. Think you can successfully study the details of a report while talking on the phone and reading your horoscope? So hang up the phone, find a quiet place and focus.

Sometimes I wish I had something to warn me when I am with someone with a cell phone so I can know that we are going to be interrupted. I find it frustrating when people either text while in a conversation or are constantly taking phone calls. Apparently not, when its by phone. In an emergency, the cell phone is a useful tool.

The form factor of a smartphone is far smaller than a computer, the ability to type quickly is hindered on the tiny keyboard, and a smartphone really cant act as a hub as much as a computer can. Because you ultimately want to get them deposited in the place where they belong.and that''s not your phone. But it''s still a phone.

When I receive an initial request for a meeting, I use a meeting form and write down the information I need: who is requesting the meeting, what is the purpose of the meeting, where it will be held and a phone number or an e-mail address and dates that are available. Never underestimate what you can learn from other assistants.

I generally steer clear of using my phone or any dictation tools. One of the most important lessons I’ve learned from journaling is that it doesn’t have to sound good. The important thing is to get your pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). What did you learn? Mike’s also written some tips for journaling with Evernote.

I have been on some interactive sites where assistants ask questions and get answers and I learn from them as I have some of the same questions. Lunch n learns are also a good way to learn from each other. Administrative newsletters or bulletin boards where you can post tips or suggestions is a good way to learn.

In case you wonder why I chose to use Blackberry instead of an iPhone or an Android phone, there are a variety of reasons, but the biggest is the encryption of data that only Blackberry offers.

Of course before I recommend anything I try it out so I picked up the phone and it asked me what I was looking for and what city and province. I chose details and was given the street address and phone number and I still had the option of having my call put through to the store number. You can use google to get similar information.
