The Performance Institute has cooked up another great conference for administrative professionals. This time, they’re hosting a summit in Arlington, VA from June 2nd through 4th. And once again, the agenda looks incredibly exciting! With an impressive line-up of expert speakers, this conference promises to cover a wide variety of topical issues including the following:

Setting effective priorities
Diversity management
Overcoming obstacles
Stress management
Motivating your office
Connecting with colleagues
Setting boundaries
Negotiation
Expanding your role

The Performance Institute is dedicated to presenting high quality information to Administrative Professionals. They recognize the incredible scope of our jobs. They know that, these days, executive assistants are meeting planners, travel agents, and office managers all rolled into one! And they know that the best way to stay on your toes is to constantly keep learning.

Most of you know that I’m a big fan of group learning. I love to get out there and attend classes and workshops – not only to learn but also to socialize with other people who work in similar positions around the country. The day-to-day routine can make you feel like you work in a bubble. While I’m sure that there are definitely things about each of our jobs that are unique, when we get together and start talking, we’re sure to find that we’ve got a lot in common. We all experience similar situations and we have a lot to learn from one another. When attending a conference like this, the agenda is the primary reason to attend, but the ability to meet and interact with your peers is definitely a strong secondary reason.

This conference is a great way to expand your skills and network with others. If you’re ready to push your career to the next level, it’s time to take a serious step. This conference is a great way to do just that.

If you’re interested, I encourage you to take a look at the website and download the summit brochure.
