Dear Administrative Professional,

"Are You STRUGGLING

to Write Administrative Assistant Goals Or Executive Assistant Goals?"

 

"...Then Discover The Methods Your Administrative Colleagues Are Learning And Using Right Now To Set Goals On The Job And In Their Career"

 

     Whether you're an administrative assistant, executive assistant or even an admin supervisor, I can teach you how to EASILY set goals for administrative professionals. With my assistance you can STOP STRESSING over this task.

     I personally wrote The Basic Guide to Goal Setting for Administrative Professionals which is a 12-page digital publication that you can download instantly and read in 15 minutes. Or listen to the mp3 format on your computer speakers and follow along in the included workbook.

     My name is Karen Porter. I'm the founder and publisher of The Effective Admin newsletter, previously distributed for three years to more than 3,500+ working administrative professionals every month (and now a paid subscription ezine). I also publish multiple informational products for administrative professionals to help them in their jobs and careers. Hundreds of administrative professionals globally buy and use my career and work-related information annually. (See a few examples of their feedback about this particular product further below.)

     Before creating and publishing The Effective Admin, I worked as an administrative professional and also as a professional writer, sometimes doing both at the same time. I've worked in positions above and below the admin level. I've been employed in corporate environments, higher education environments and more. I'm a trained journalist and researcher. I combined those strengths and used my experience to create a goal-setting guide that you can easily understand that's focused on the administrative profession.

     This easy to follow guide lays out a step-by-step process for administrative assistants or executive assistants to set goals. It's a springboard that will help you to brainstorm your own personalized goals in your workplace. This is all accomplished with simple definitions, guidelines and even admin-specific examples.

     But you don't have to take my word for it...instead read this sample of real and unedited comments from administrative assistants and executive assistants who used this guide for assistance with setting their goals. Then after their comments just click the button you'll see to get your own copy of the guide in the next five minutes.

"Your goals setting publication allowed me to think of my goals from a completely different perspective and [this] was the first time in 20 years that I have not stressed over my annual review. I was prepared for it and in fact, looked forward to it."

Judy Santiago
Executive Assistant

San Antonio, Texas

 

 

"I purchased this product because I was preparing for my yearly evaluation at work, and I was having difficulty determining new goals and objectives. The information I received was very helpful and I was able to identify the objectives and goals that I want in my current position.

 

I thought it was very well written and very easy to understand and comprehend. It gave me insight into things that I hadn't considered before, [especially the section about] 7 Things You Need to Know in Order to Set Professional Goals at Work"

Jackie Brantley

Administrative Assistant
Nashville, TN

 

 

"The Basic Guide To Goal Setting For Administrative Professionals was a lifesaver. It helped me set realistic and clearly defined goals.

...My manager asked me to set goals and objectives for the year. The tips helped me to give careful consideration of setting a goal and trying to reach a measure that is reasonable yet challenging. I was able to include the training or developmental initiatives that I felt would assist in my personal development.

I was so proud of how I lined the goals up with the corporate and division goals/vision."

Audrey G. Nesbit
Administrative Assistant
Columbia, South Carolina

 

 

"I thought the information on goal setting and performance review was fantastic. It was of great help to me. The tips were usable in my workplace."

Cheryl Himburg
Administrative Assistant
Kitchener, Ontario Canada

 

 

"I purchased the Admin Goal setting to better improve my own personal/professional goals. It is helping me think outside the box and giving me more ideas.

[The section about] Specific Administrative Professional Goals is helping me add more responsibilities to my current duties, by way of goal setting."

Stephanie Cole
Administrative Assistant
Coppell, TX

 

"I purchased Goal Setting for Administrative Professionals because I can use some help in setting my professional goals. I’ve been an assistant for over 25 years, but I don’t want to feel like I’m too set in my ways. A little assistance in looking at things from another perspective never hurts.

[The sections about] The Questions that Inspire Goal-Setting and the Specific Professional Goals were very helpful in providing a new viewpoint to approaching goal-setting.

I think you’ve done a great job of providing a variety of information needed by today’s administrative professionals."
 
Cathey Kuhn
Sr. Administrative Assistant

"I loved this! I found it to be very helpful. Especially the 7 Things You need to know in order to set professional goals at work. That helped me begin thinking on the right track."

Jaclyn Mattson
Administrative Support Assistant III
Chico, CA

 

"The goal setting article was fantastic. I was able to set some personal goals with my boss for the upcoming year. The goals were ones that I was able to think about and come up with, then present them to my boss. They are inline with our company vision and what my boss has set for her own goals."

Administrative Secretary
