I heard it again today: “Artificial intelligence is taking over. It won’t be long until it puts me out of a job.” My response: “If AI can replace you, you’re not putting enough effort into your career.” Does it sound harsh? Maybe…but it’s the truth. Administrative professionals who are constantly innovating, willing to embrace AI instead of fearing it, and doing their best to learn and grow with the changing times and technologies are not at risk of being replaced by AI.

Company culture matters. In fact, it’s one of the most significant factors that younger generations consider when deciding to stay at or apply for a job. Unfortunately, it’s also something managers may neglect until it starts to cause problems. If their approach centers around pain points, issues are likely addressed as they arise, while their causes are ignored.

Owning a home business can be exciting and empowering, but it can also be challenging and isolating. With no coworkers to bounce ideas off of, no boss to provide guidance, and no office culture to rely on, it’s easy to feel alone and overwhelmed. That’s why having a strong support system is essential for home business owners. A support system can provide the emotional and practical support, advice and guidance, and networking opportunities needed to succeed as a home business owner.
