DECEMBER 15, 2014

Office Dynamics International has been serving the Administrative Profession for 24 years (since 1990). Our team collectively began to wind down the year and talk about all that’s happened over the years, in the profession, in our own lives, and in the lives of the many we’ve come to know – as we did this, we experienced a wave of emotion.

Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

Only I used the US guest code and host code while inadvertently providing the international dial-in numbers which aren’t compatible! I suggested it to the person organizing the event so I could help out and work it, but also to meet the direct reports of my CEO and the rest of the team at the headquarter office there.

Some people dont play well in a team and can be like that link in the chain that keeps skipping. What can you do if you are part of a team that is not playing well together? Are you doing your part and contributing to the goals of the team or are you getting bogged down with situations? Good team play can be contagious.

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?

We’ve all been there before, working with other assistants that seem to be more interested in ‘high school’ antics rather than actually working together and getting the job done, like a united admin team should.

Here are some tips on getting your team members to lower their voices: Ask the group of people to quiet down, move their conversation to a meeting room or even take the conversation outside. I also work in an environment where it gets a little too loud at times. Its nice to socialize at times, but we are here to work.
