Effective Skills For Office Administration Staff

“Learn to thrive for success in today's office environment”
by Cyril Pagadala

Date & Venue
26th-27th July 2010, The Legend Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Dear Friends,

Administrators play an important role in supporting management in their important decision-making role through keeping records, written and oral communication and providing right information to the right people at the right time.

These employees are often left out of training program as they are considered already well trained by superiors or considered non-decision makers and that therefore training is not required.

It is therefore not surprising that some of them end up feeling unchallenged in their work leading to lethargy in the workplace and poor work ethics.

What is this workshop about?

This program seeks to sharpen the participant's administrative skills and to develop the ability to handle relationships with insiders and outsiders with courtesy and tact. It also touches on time management so that more things can be done in a shorter time and thus reduce stress.

The program finally seeks to enable participants to set goals for themselves and enhance their work ethics leading to improved personal motivation.

Why this workshop?

By the end of the session, you would be able to:

  • Improve their self-image and take pride in their professional career
  • Enhance their working relationship with others
  • Communicate better with peers, subordinates and superiors
  • Handle visitors professionally
  • Manage time and work more productively
  • Enhance their telephone communication skills
  • Apply basic skills of efficient filing system
  • Have confidence in their daily work life

Learning Process

This is a completely activity-based workshop consisting of more than 12 different activities. The experiential method is used throughout the programme and participants are expected to draw upon their own work and life experience and do a lot of self-analysis to realise their strengths and weaknesses and decide how this can be turned into improving their work.

Participants are also required to participate in role plays and other activities that will provide a simulation of work situations such as handling the telephone, organising work and time, handling relationships, handling visitors, developing assertive skills, developing public speaking confidence and skills

Finally participants get to make a evaluation of themselves in five areas:

  • Their reliability as an employee,
  • their responsiveness in attending to work
  • the confidence they project to others,
  • the ability to empathise with others
  • have tangibles that project a good self-image. They are required to build on these weaknesses as part of their post- training life long learning
