I’m excited about following a routine and getting to 5.30pm without too much stress and disappointed that I haven’t completed everything that I needed to and also being able to look back on a successful day. I have had to make other tasks a priority including booking an in-house lunch for the CEO for a meeting tomorrow.

This meeting was held out of town and those are a bit more hectic because I cant easily go to my desk to get what I need. Before I left I went over my checklists a few times to make sure I had everything and it was stress free each day as I reviewed the lists and checked off the items to bring. 5, 2010 at 12 p.m. 411 Look Up 411.ca

When I receive an initial request for a meeting, I use a meeting form and write down the information I need: who is requesting the meeting, what is the purpose of the meeting, where it will be held and a phone number or an e-mail address and dates that are available. 5, 2010 at 12 p.m.

I sent another assistant a comical card about being stressed out at work. We work in a very busy office so it was a nice surprise for her to receive it and helped put the stress of the office in perspective. EST Taking Effective Meeting Minutes Join me for a Webinar Oct.

An e-mail like the one I received would have been better delivered face to face or by phone in order to get the tone of what the person was trying to communicate. I stop the flow and pick up the phone. It is amazing how quickly a matter can be handled on the phone or in person. Why are we not speaking to each other anymore?
