Today, administrative professionals do much more than just take memos and answer the phones. While they do these tasks, they also must handle scheduling, coordinate meetings, know the most recent computer programs, be able to work increasing-complex office machinery, handle some accounting, and much more. “Secretary” no longer defines these hard-working professionals. If you found yourself without your administrative professional, your office could easily fall into disorganization.
Think about it. Without these people, you would have to take the time to schedule meetings. That involves setting a time and date when everyone can attend, which can be very difficult if you don’t have everyone’s schedules handy. You’d also have to answer the phone and handle all of the clients yourself. When would you ever get work done? Even if you see clients all day long, you’d constantly have to interrupt to handle other clients on the phone or who just dropped in.
Without your administrative professional’s wisdom, grace, expertise, organizational skills, and humor, you would have much more to handle. On April 25th, take the time to show these administrative professionals just how much you appreciate them. Take them to lunch, get them flowers, or have an office party. Just don’t forget to do something—they DO know about Administrative Professionals Day, and they won’t forget if you forget!
