The impact of gender on admin. careers

Exec Office Meeting

I asked my international panel if they’d experienced gender-specific advantages or challenges in establishing an administrative career … and what impact, if any, they think growing numbers of men in the profession will have on perceptions of the admin. career.

Check back Wednesday to see what they had to say.

Thanks, NYC, for making this Vancouverite feel at home, and you’ve really stepped it up with all the added thunder and lightning.⛈ 😂The skies were beautiful when I arrived at Penn Station - and good thing, since I’d already decided to walk to the hotel. On a positive note, as I’ve watched the continually evolving view (or absence) of the Manhattan skyline on and off in the past hour, I feel much better about the fact that I won’t be exploring much until tomorrow, as I’m working to deadline for a client, on an article about governance in the world of venture capitalism. Back to the keyboard I go! #itsrainingitspouring #thunderstorm #nyc #newyork #bigapple #explorenewyork #summerstorm #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel ... and now, live from New York ... #newyork #nyc #thebigapple #pennsyation #explorenyc #manhattan #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel More pics from DC’s Union Station this morning #unionstation #dc #washington #train #traintravel #architecturephotography #architecture #bell #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel ... and now a bout of architecture. The first time we travelled through DC’s Penn Station, the interior was being refurbished and there was scaffolding in the main hall. Now, that work is complete. Here’s the first of a couple of series of shots. #unionstation #dc #washington #train #traintravel #architecturephotography #architecture #bell #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel We were also in Virginia last evening. This was the first time I’d seen the US Marine Corps War Memorial. Made of bronze, its scale is impressive,with 32’ tall figures and a 60’ flagpole. The sculpture replicates 1945 Iwo Jima flag raising as captured by photographer Joe Rosenthal. #iwojima #virginia #memorial #wwII #worldwar2 #usa #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel More of National Harbor, Maryland with Linda and Viola #sculptures #americana #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #nationalharbor #maryland More of last evening in DC, visiting the Martin LutherKing, Jr. Memorial and overlooking the Washington Monument and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial #martinlutherking #jefferson #sculptures #americana ##visualsoflife #dc #washington #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport @IAAP and National Harbor, Maryland, it’s been a blast! Thanks for having me give four presentations to your members from multiple countries, and for the friendships. Here, an afternoon outing with Chrissy, Linda and Viola. #iaap #iaapsummit #nationalharbor #maryland #sculptures #americana #rosietheriveter #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport Another incredibly moving tribute, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC. Again, this wasn’t my first visit but it takes the breath away each time. Seeing a group of fellows in their (I think) late teens visiting, I thought how closely their ages must be to many of those whose lives ended far too soon in war. #dc #vietnamveteransmemorial #memorialwall #washington #history #war #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces The Korean War Memorial in Washington, DC strikes me again and again, each time I experience it. #koreanwarmemorial #koreanwar #dc #vivid #tribute Despite the lightning strike you see in the upper right corner of this first pic - captured nicely by the lovely @ea2theboss - none of us was caught in a storm (despite a number of brilliant lightning strikes) during an evening tour of DC’s memorials and monuments. There were a number of conference participants in this group, including Gina, Ingrid, Jannie, Viola and more. #monument #memorials #DC #washington #timewithfriends #iaap More faces of IAAP’s #iaapsummit Faces of @iaap #iaapsummit Fun on the @IAAP #iaapsummit dance floor. The couple in the first two pics are amazing dancers. #dance #dancing Fun with friends @HawaiianEA Nora Onishi, @juanitamort, @SharonThPassion @song_ofthesouth ... just some of the impresssive @iaap leaders recognizing or being recognised Saturday night at #iaapsummit I was touched by the grace evidenced, and wanted to share this vid of Nora paying tribute to Hawaii, her home. #leadership #iaap #hawaii Am taking a couple of minutes to catch up on sharing some lovely impressions and memories already made at the @IAAP #iaapsummit. Here’s the first of a few batches. #iaap #iaapsummit #nationalharbor #friends #maryland #americana #maryland #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Friday’s sunset in National Harbor, Maryland - I’ve had the pleasure of being here to present on cybersecurity and IR4.0, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, to terrific career focused assistants who are members of @IAAP, the International Association or Administrative Professionals. #iaap #iaapsummit #nationalharbor #sunset #ferriswheel #maryland #americana #maryland #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel
