Between coordinating meetings, making travel arrangements, and running the phone lines, being a professional administrative assistant requires an astonishing and varied range of skills involving interpersonal communication, written presentations, and organizational ability.

Now in its third edition, the book has been completely revised with expanded coverage of topics including electronic records management, interpersonal and communication skills, troubleshooting computer problems, time and stress management, customer service, event planning, web conferencing, math for office professionals, office management and supervision, transcription, and much more.

Comprehensive and completely up-to-date, this is the book every administrative professional should own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable how-to manual , 15 Dec 2008
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The CEO may seem indispensable, but little changes on a day-to-day basis if he or she is on vacation. On the other hand, if the CEO's administrative assistant (AA) is out of the office, things can break down fast. The CEO may be the public face of the organization, but the AA (executive secretary, office administrator) is its internal heart and soul. When people need things fixed, from copy machines to schedule conflicts, from lost documents to lost opportunities, they turn to the AA, the all-purpose office expert, who must be knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, even if the CEO is above the fray. Executive secretaries are expected to be superb generalists, able to do a million things efficiently, on time and well. And just how is this possible? Well, look at this big, fat manual for AAs and secretaries. It covers everything, from the elementary to the complex, from telephone procedures to recordkeeping, databases, technology, correspondence and more. If you are an AA or hope to be, this is the ideal guide, with all you need to know in one handy volume. getAbstract recommends it to office administrators in every industry.
