At our local IAAP chapter dinner we heard a speaker from an etiquette protocol company Savoir-Faire and she suggested that it was very important to go to the office party because it was more about protocol and networking and how you are viewed as a team player than socializing. And by golly, I think she is right! How about you?
Polish up the ol resume It is all right to send your resume out and see what kind of response you get. In this new age of not doing anything more than a quick spell check on documents, make sure you do not have any spelling mistakes in your resume. Job satisfaction is important. They are interested, now what?
Make sure your resume is up to scratch: Your resume should list your skills, your experience in working as a virtual assistant, and any other capabilities that you think potential employers are looking for. Alternatively, you can list yourself with other online placement sites as well.
What is the proper etiquette when addressing or writing to a President? Here is a video link on the proper etiquette to address a President. Everyone up here calls him Obama and our Prime Minister is called Harper. Why do we not use their full name? Or it is that we just dont know how to address them so revert to last names?
Here is some common-sense etiquette: Screen your calls: Subscribe to call display. However, I think our etiquette hasnt caught up with the technology. Other times we will be talking and I notice his eyes moving to his BlackBerry and I will see he is no longer paying attention to me, but reading emails instead.
Hello Readers - 8 months ago, a reader asked me a question about fraternization and social etiquette at work. I invited half a dozen people but the word spread like wildfire and almost the entire product and engineering team showed up a little after 5:30pm. The link is that original post. 4) Start temping immediately.
They are a team of office professionals for office professionals. Click on that and you will find a wealth of templates from a resume, cover letter, minutes, agenda and many others. If you have never heard of OfficeArrow I would recommend you check them out.

The team members were pleased with the work and it was agreed that the Finance Director should pay the invoice from the Recreation Account. The language of minutes Discussion and questions ensued -- The team members agreed -- It was decided -- The following points were made. Then the action makes perfect sense.
If they are a team player then that filters down to the staff, but if they are the King of the Hill, then that also starts to filter down and people start to feel more important than they should and a lot of power struggles start happening and back-biting.
It can also improve team work and general office dynamics. If you dont have that in your office, why not suggest it to the other assistants? Having a buddy can take some of the stress off and give you assurance that you have someone you can depend on.
Be a team player. Having the right people in the right job is a good combination and makes for a productive team. Start yesterday and be the most improved worker on the team and show you have the qualities they are looking for. Dont try and hide and stay below the radar. You want to be seen as someone who can work with others.
She said it wouldnt look good on my resume if I was seen as a job hopper. When I was a teenager, I had some good advice from someone I used to babysit for. She advised that I should stay at least one year in any job I was in. Today, I would recommend at least two years to really get the benefit of the training.

This can also be a good time to strengthen your relationship with your team members. It doesnt have to be a long conversation, just a short introduction and if you work in a large company you might want to say which department you work in. It is nice to have that outside-of-work social connection to make working with someone more pleasant.
I recently went on a professional development day and one of the speakers spoke about the importance of respect for our co-workers and team members and how that should be reflected in our communications with them. Or at least that is what happens to me.
I think it is preferable for those who do set it aside to include all support staff as most offices now work in teams and everyone should be rewarded for a job well done. Is your office doing anything for Administrative Professionals Day?
If you are part of an administrative team you can use your meetings to share knowledge with each other or give tips on something new you have discovered. Administrative newsletters or bulletin boards where you can post tips or suggestions is a good way to learn.
