Very often, executive secretaries, administrators & clerical personnel are not told- they have one of the most, if not the most important job in the company. They are being entrusted to hold fort, and single-handedly manage the day to day operations and tasks of the company’s top leadership.
Most of their days incorporate tasks which are ad hoc; but this training will mould them to understand that there are many things in life that we are unable to control, or change, but the only thing we are able to manage, is our mind. The reason an average executive secretaries / administrative personnel would get rattled at the slightest challenge in life is poor mental conditioning. The mind is like a car which needs to be well oiled and constantly serviced. If we fill our minds with negativity, any amount of relaxation activities will not bear fruit. Hence, the crux of this training is to empower secretaries and administrators to realise that the rejuvenation happens from within. Clear thoughts leads to a focused mind, which operates at its optimum.
This workshop serves as a tool for the participants to understand the importance of their jobs, learn the cardinal rules of dealing with people, telephone etiquette, time management and a variety of other skills which improve their on-the-job performance. As a result, companies can ensure that their service standards will always be uniformly upheld, whilst boasting a superior five-star clerical / administrative personnel.
