Best Practices of Office Managers

Determine how to prioritize and complete important assignments and ensure a positive, productive work environment.

Many office managers who are expected to multitask and prioritize projects often do not understand how to leverage time to ensure the most important deadlines are met amid rapid change. They also do not recognize how to effectively address negative behavior which spreads contagious negativity throughout the office and generates conflict. This presentation will help those who are responsible for the completion of important tasks with a firm deadline to develop a process to determine how to prioritize and complete important assignments despite continuous change, and how to spot and reroute negativity to ensure a positive, productive work environment. The live webinar also explains how recognizing and defusing conflict can improve workplace relationships and productivity. This workshop is critical for office managers to ensure they can increase office productivity, positivity, and profitability.
