Be Good to Your Staff!

By Jeb Crandall

I bet most of you did not know that April 21, 2010 is Administrative Professionals Day. This day is often overlooked by many employers and managers who are “too busy” to take the time to thank those who are the engine behind the corporate machine. Without these people, the day-to-day tasks that many of us and our businesses take for granted would go undone. How many of us really know how to use a postage machine to send a letter? How about file a document electronically with the court? Or how about use the fax machine??? Think about it. Many of us would be crippled if our support staff decided not to show up one day.

Take the time to thank and appreciate your support staff as often as possible – not just on Administrative Professionals Day. Don’t forget that these are the people who truly make or break a business.
