The New kind of Administrative Assistant
Our first English Lecture for the Executive Secretary Committee at Amcham was a success. We intend to repeat it and present topics for discussion and interaction so as to promote networking, desirable skills and fluency in English.
Nowadays, the so called "secretárias executivas" in Brazil can decide for an upgrade in their status in the companies, as they assist managers and CEOs entering in the global market. They can play the role of a business facilitator, being able to communicate in different languages and understanding cultural differences. There is, in fact, a demand for this pro-active employee who is able to translate their bosses and companies. Intraentrepreneurial skills, in fact. Entrepreneurs who act inside organizations. Caroline and Flavia at On The Road and Cenira at CNH are very good examples of this kind of professional. They are up-to-date and always searching for new opportunities of interaction.
A bit about Entrepreneurship....
Studies made on Entrepreneurship show that people can be taught how to develop the desired profile of an Entrepreneur, which means having an assertive an assertive and self-motivated attitude towards their goals and objectives. One characteristic of an Entrepreneur is internal locus of control. entrepreneurs believe they are not simply pawns of the environment where they are inserted, but rather, that the outcome of events and situations are susceptible to intervention. In other words, that they have the skills and capacity to intervene effectively in certain situations or influence events.
A window to discussion and participation:
I would like to ask the participants to post about their experience and what they would like to discuss in our next meeting! You can also post a bit about yourselves, like photos and interests!
