About this Event
Please note that we will be in touch with the exact meeting location in the Presidio in San Francisco as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
The position of Administrative Assistant to the Head of School or Division Head is a unique, complicated, and demanding one, requiring a high degree of professionalism as well as a complex combination of exceptional interpersonal skills, technology know-how, and the ability to manage and track several projects and events simultaneously.
While the administrative support role requires maintaining a high level of confidentiality, those in it can feel isolated from others in the school. This program offers a small, confidential, and welcoming environment designed to foster connections, learning, support, and dialogue with peers who share similar experiences and challenges.
We will pay attention to the continuously changing demands of our roles. Along with guest speakers and readings, we will incorporate time to problem solve, share know-how and resources, request practical feedback or suggestions, or just simply laugh about our jobs.
This year's ongoing program will be in person and consist of three 5-hour workshops with a different theme for each session. This year we are adding two - 1 hour remote check-ins between sessions. Whether you are new to the position or a veteran, a space for sharing ideas and support will be created. Our first meeting will allow time to reacquaint or get to know one another. We will also frame the year together, as meetings will be tailored to the needs and interests of our current participants. Topics may include skills building, self-advocacy, delegation, tech resources, salary negotiation and self-care.
AUDIENCE
This program is for executive assistants, administrative assistants, and anyone serving in a support role at a school.
