One thing I hear Joan encourage during conferences, webinars, and one on one conversations is to be courageous. To borrow a quote from Joan’s Greatest Administrative Secrets Revealed book – “Success is about expanding yourself where you are currently planted.”. I am so glad I did though!
Planning travel for others is no simple matter and administrativeprofessionals know this better than anyone else! Except in the case of “foodie” travelers, most people will pick restaurants based on convenience and location rather than the hottest artisanal eats. However, they don’t have to be mutually exclusive.
