Theme: Become the modern administrative and executive assistant as a collaborative business agent
Overview
The tide has turned in today's administrative world. In this modern era characterized by constant technological revolutions, the role of personal assistants/administrators has seen a paradigm shift as well. Presently, their role has more to do with strategic alignment of organizations. Their role has become more pronounced than ever before, more so at the executive management level. At this level, an executive personal assistant is key in driving strategic decisions.
How is the role of personal assistants/administrators in today's corporate world?
Traditionally, personal assistants/administrators mainly undertook routine administrative tasks. In today's corporate world, the case is different. A personal assistant's role is perceived more as that of a manager and a leader in equal measure. Their role now is more complex and comprehensive than ever before. It is centered on strategic thinking, problem solving & decision making, building the corporate culture and change management.
In today's corporate world a PA and Administrator is seen as:
- A communication expert endowed with great oratory, persuasion, diplomatic and active listening skills.
- A business partner endowed with creative and innovative ideas and focused on partnering with an organization for long term success.
- A support specialist who executes tasks with diligence, keenness to detail and timeliness.
- A leader and manager who acts as a role model to others by overseeing the planning and execution of operations.
- A technology specialist who can integrate technology to process, store and retrieve information to aid in day to day operations of an organization.
In light of the changing role of a personal assistant/administrator, it demands a combination of a diverse skill set that ranges from personal standards, interpersonal standards to ethical standards.
It is thus crucial to have mastery of:
- Leveraging on technology and taking over AI administrative and personal assistant
- Effective communication-oral and written communication skills, conflict management and negotiation skills.
- Official protocol, diplomacy and etiquette
- A collaborative business partnership attitude
- Mature decision making through accurate judgment and utmost discretion
- Contingency planning
- Strategic competence
- International business management
- Role of project management for the personal assistant and administrative sssistant
In essence, personal assistants/administrators are the greatest heroes in every organization. It is through their unwavering support that the management is able to advance the organization's vision. As their role continuously evolves in line with the changing corporate world they must also reskill to keep up with the changes. Sharpening core skills-excellent interpersonal skills, oral and written communication, flexibility, adaptability, emotional intelligence, and innovativeness will be key in enabling personal assistants to adapt to the changing corporate world.
