An executive PA is often the glue holding an organisation together. Liaising with various teams and individuals can be a complex task, so a good PA needs to have an understanding of the whole business from top to bottom and the dexterity to communicate with people from all levels. At the highest level, the job is not just about following instructions but requires the PA to be assertive and take the initiative.
PA training teaches you all the skills you need to build a relationship with your Executive and keep the business running smoothly. As well as good all round secretarial skills, you will also learn verbal and non-verbal communication techniques, ways of influencing and ways of building a rapport with clients and other staff.
The position of PA can often feel like a lonely place to be, so training also focuses a lot on your own personal development and well being. You’ll learn how to keep yourself happy, as well as others. Trainers will help you work on your assertiveness, self-esteem, time management and stress management. A PA will often have to liaise with several managers, so it’s important that you can keep a cool head and remain your own person. You need to think of yourself as a proactive member of the management team in your own right, not just someone’s dogsbody.
Training can take place at open workshops or can be arranged in house. Open (public) training can be arranged at short notice, and is usually attended by individuals or small groups. In house seminars, on the other hand, take place on your own premises and offer training that is tailored to the specific needs of your business or team.
If you want to develop your skills and become an indispensible executive PA, Approved Index will find you a PA training course suited to your individual needs. Just fill in our simple enquiry form to receive free, no obligation quotes from up to 4 leading PA training companies.
