Introduction:

Good communication and planning skills are essential qualities for administrative professionals to enable an organization to run smoothly. This comprehensive course elaborates on two key areas: good interpersonal working relationships to get the best out of other people, for example in teamwork, delegation, assertiveness, meetings and supporting presentations, and effective use of time, for example in setting priorities, managing interruptions, planning projects, developing efficient working practices and writing clearly. This interactive course is designed to help the candidates review and develop these skills so that they can enhance not only their own effectiveness but also that of their immediate colleagues and teams. The course focuses specifically on:
