Book Overview
What does a Fortune 500 company have in common with a two-person office in Fort Mill, South Carolina? Neither could function without the multiple skills and talents of an administrative office professional. They are the ones who keep the top echelon from falling into chaos. When they do their jobs well, the company not only looks good but it operates like a precision machine. Despite their importance to the overall operation of a business, administrative support personnel are repeatedly overlooked and underappreciated. They are often left to fend for themselves on matters of morale or growth within the company.
There are books galore to guide the junior executive or manager to the heights of his or her field. There are strategies and philosophies that help them understand the higher purpose behind their ascent to the top. But for people whose labor and loyalty help them make that climb, there has been very little in print to inspire, teach, and show them how to maximize their career. Today’s administrative professional, whether called an office administrator, marketing assistant or executive assistant, is not just a task doer or order taker. She is a knowledgeable assistant who must draw on cognitive abilities which eventually will move her into the Inner Circle.
The words Inner Circle conjure up visions of an exclusive group of people whose achievements are admired and rewarded. The Inner Circle Assistant title doesn’t show up on any organizational chart but she’s the woman or, the man of the hour. The people who support company movers and shakers have the opportunity to move into an Inner Circle and this book, BECOME AN INNER CIRCLE ASSISTANT, outlines the steps to get there as well as thrive in the position. It is a book of strategy and workplace philosophy that will help administrative professionals become top performers in work and in their careers. The book presents the competencies that characterize successful office professionals and is based on the author’s popular training program, the Star Achievement Series® which is delivered to thousands of administrative professionals nationwide. Assistants who learn these competencies and incorporate them into their work will be successful – i.e. increase their impact on the company’s results, be visible and recognized as a star performer, prepare for future positions, increase self-esteem and levels of confidence and ultimately achieve Inner Circle status.
BECOME AN INNER CIRLCE ASSISTANT is the kind of book that belongs in the hands of every administrative professional in the country. And if management wants to see greater improvement within the company, it should place a copy on each and every desk. |
