  National Webinar Series

  How to break out of your work silo even if you feel boxed in (without feeling like it means adding something to your to-do list) with Liz Van Vliet

  Tuesday 21 May 2024 11am (AWT)

  Silos affect your ability to grow your influence and impact as an Office Professional. Being stuck in your silo can get in the way of opportunities for growth and development. In this webinar, Liz will share 3 ideas for action to help you break out of your silo. 
  

  About the Speaker 
  

  Liz Van Vliet, Founder & Managing Director, The Linchpin Assistant.

  The Linchpin Assistant is your blueprint for success.

  Liz Van Vliet is also the founder and trainer behind The Linchpin Assistant. If her surname tripped you up, don't worry. For the record, it's Van Vl-ie-t, as in f-e-e-t. It's not as fancy as it first looks, hey?

  Many of the EAs and administrative assistants that she worked with, and the clients she helps today, have excellent hard skills. They're good at their jobs, and they're efficient at providing all levels of administrative support. But these same EAs lack the interpersonal skills that can take them from being 'good' to being 'great'.

  They're what Liz calls 'POWER Skills', and without them, you can lack the confidence you need to perform at a high level. You can feel stuck, unappreciated and at risk of replacement.   If this sounds like you, you're not alone.

  Liz developed the Linchpin Assistant Framework to help assistants learn these, POWER Skills. You'll gain the confidence you need to better support your manager and achieve your career goals.

  Three Takeaways

  • Three silo-busting tactics you can implement immediately.
  • How getting out of your silo builds your career 'currency'
  • How your insight into your organisation can help you be effective in your role

  Times:  11am (WA),12.30pm (SA, NT), 1.00pm (QLD, NSW/ACT/VIC/TAS), 3pm (NZ)

  AIOP National Education Day  

  Performing Under Pressure - Managing Changing and Conflicting Priorities, with Steuart Snooks 

  Updates

  Torrens University, The College of Adult Learning, The Career Academy

  Tuesday 27 August 2024 at 1.15pm AWT (Perth) (note the start time)

  Managing changing and conflicting priorities is a crucial skill for office professionals, especially when operating in fast-paced environments. As expectations shift and new tasks arise, the ability to adapt and prioritize effectively becomes vital. This skill not only ensures that essential tasks are completed on time but also helps maintain focus and reduce challenges in high-pressure situations. In this National Webinar Series presented by Steuart Snooks the issue of Empowering Office Professionals to Achieve Success he will delve into strategies and insights to help you excel in managing changing and conflicting priorities, allowing you time to perform at your best, under pressure.
  

  About the Webinar 

  Stuart will guide you through the steps needed to be able to perform under pressure and manage daily conflicting priorities. 

  About the Guest Speaker - Steuart Snooks 

  
  

  Steuart helps busy professionals and executives improve their workplace performance, productivity and outcomes . . . beginning with email.

  He is Email & Workplace Productivity Expert who works with busy professionals and their teams to help them get control of all their email.

  He shows business owners, CEOs and senior executives a range of best practices to help them restore email to its rightful place as a tool to facilitate improved workplace and personal productivity.

  My first career was in the wine industry (working in restaurants, retail and wholesale) before travelling to France to visit and work in vineyards and wineries in Champagne, Burgundy, Beaujolais, the Loire, Cognac and Bordeaux. After a period of seeking to combine wine education and travel, I joined a time management company with a view to perhaps becoming a time management expert to the wine trade.

  So, as a result of many years of ‘hands on experience’ since 1997, working with those who are overloaded and crying out for practical, affordable solutions to the various challenges of email productivity, I have developed a series of workshops, presentations, webinars, coaching and associated resources that will show you and your team the highly practical and easily implemented Best Practice skills, techniques and strategies for mastering your email.

  What you learn could change the way you work . . .  forever!

  After this presentation ...

  We will hear from representatives from 

  • Torrens University - Shirl Keen
  • The College of Adult Learning - Pete Riddle 
  • The Career Academy, Hemin Patel 

  who will give you an overview of the Pathways to Learning courses provided by them.

  Bookings close 25 August at 5pm.

  Time zones: 1.15pm WA, 3.15pm QLD, NSW, VIC|TAS. 2.45pm SA, NT.
