Tonight we met at the Red Rock Resort Pool Area for a great networking event. Many were return attendees, which doesn’t surprise me at all given the quality of training and the spectacular way Joan has with putting on an event of distinction. It takes time and attention and training/development. We’re READY!

I have a deep admiration and appreciation for those who dedicate themselves to support roles, which is one of the reasons I now focus a large part of my corporate training business on working with administrative teams. In reality, these are two very different roles, both in the expectations and in the skills required to be successful.

Even my teachers were aware about my apparent passivity and they “blamed” my success on my natural skills: a fantastic memory, they said. I confess that each morning I was a little bit confused and even frightened just before getting into the flow of events, but once I was there, acting and doing stuff, everything felt into pieces.
