Administrative Professionals aren’t what they used to be. We started out doing such things as managing multiple calendars, maintaining files, preparing correspondence and building reports, just to name a few. Today’s professional does so much more. We are the “go-to” person. We are the SME (Subject Matter Expert). We are expected to be all knowing about all things… (scratch that) …EVERYTHING!
