For the cost of sending just one of your PAs on an individual training course, now ALL of the PAs in your organisation can experience powerful training on how to manage their own, and their Managers business priorities, and successfully build effective working relationships with the key people within their working lives.
With over two hours of highly focused training, including role plays by a team of actors to reinforce and embed the learning, plus downloadable templates to work from, these training DVDs have revolutionised how Personal Assistants can access high quality and relevant PA training, providing a permanent resource for training departments to utilise time and time again. The training provides PAs with systems and structures to enable them to develop a dynamic and proactive working partnership with their Manager, transforming their own, and their Managers effectiveness.
Designed and delivered by Susie Barron-Stubley, renowned international speaker and PA trainer, Judge of Hays/The Times PA of the Year Awards 2010 and popular key note speaker, it is fast becoming the most talked about, and the most cost effective, development option for PAs. Susie has delivered training to thousands of PAs, from Dubai and South Africa to Shanghai and Bangkok, and has transformed the working practices of thousands of PAs around the world.
The core learning in this box set of training DVDs includes:
• Understanding the strategic positioning of the role of the PA.
• Defining, negotiating and communicating your responsibilities, becoming a fully integrated member
of your manager’s team.
• Working collaboratively and strategically with your Manager, understanding your Managers
priorities, developing and maintaining a strong working partnership with your Manager.
• Developing confidence and assertiveness, communication and influencing skills, understanding,
and extending, your own communication patterns.
• Managing your key relationships – internally and externally. Clarifying implicit and explicit
expectations – communicating your own expectations.
The 3 disc set includes bonus features of an interview with Susie Barron-Stubley conducted by Mike Caridia, MD of pa-assist.com and a discussion between Susie, Mike and Gareth Osborne, Director General of the APA on the future role of Personal Assistants.
For the first time, Personal Assistants can access Susie’s specialised PA training programmes without needing to leave the office, taking them to the next level and become a Top Performing PA themselves.
