Management Skills for Administrative Professionals – 2 Day Online Workshop (PV792)

Extend Your Influence and Increase the Value of Your Role in the Organization

This course will be delivered two ways:

• Live, instructor-led session online
• In person (in classroom) in Ottawa

Please check available dates in the two sections on the right, and click the corresponding REGISTER ONLINE button for your choice.

Management is frequently described as the art of getting work done through others. This requires a set of skills and talents that Administrative Professionals can develop to extend their influence, meet their manager’s expectations, create a professional image, take initiative, solve problems, resolve conflict, plan current and future activities, and have a springboard for career development.

If you are in the role of executive secretary or administrative assistant you’ll find this workshop to be essential to your present job and critical to your future.

This workshop is not a lecture. It is a “hands on” opportunity to identify your existing management skills, develop new skills and bring increased opportunity to your organization and to you personally.

This is a two-day virtual live workshop.

Space is still available for all course dates listed, unless otherwise noted.
