The Evolution of the Secretary

If you focus on learning as much as you possibly can at each level or position throughout your career, the advancement will happen naturally without much pursuit required. You must be able to partner with your executives and teams and it requires more than just knowing how to unjam the copier and handle a multi-line phone system to reach that level of support. Admins who focus on truly understanding how a business runs at every level and truly understand how they contribute to the success of the company will advance their careers in ways they never thought possible. I truly believe that the administrative profession should adopt the tagline: Start here. Go anywhere. The potential is limitless.
