INTRODUCTION

This highly interactive training seminar will help you to develop and refine the skills needed to excel as an Office Manager, Administrator or Executive Secretary. It will explore in depth the interpersonal and behavioral skills necessary to ensure you are well prepared for the challenges of working with a variety of management styles. On this training course, you will also learn how to stay in control whilst dealing with conflicting priorities. Becoming more effective as an Office manager will definitely make your job easier and make you more valuable in the eyes of your managers and the company stakeholders. Office Managers need to be expert multi-taskers – even if you’re doing more than four things at once, that’s probably still not enough! You need to be indispensable – to know exactly who to call to fix that pesky problem your boss has. And to be truly indispensable you need to be organised, be an excellent communicator, and be able to deal with whatever challenging situation your working life presents you with. This training course will help you to do that.
