THANK YOU for completing this interview!

Please return your completed interview to karen@albeepublishing.com

Here's the legal fine print...  As an interviewee, you are sharing this information voluntarily; there is no compensation (unless you count my gratitude -- which is huge!). But I feel certain your peers in the profession will be interested in your responses and perhaps even be inspired or influenced by the thoughts you share. Once submitted, your survey responses are the property of The Effective Admin.

NOTE: Complete only one survey per person (so I can publish as many different administrative professionals as possible over the years). If you don't recall whether or not you've already sent a completed survey to me, just ask and I'll check my pending files for you. The ones already published are listed in the column to your right.

THANK YOU for your time and your responses to this survey.
