Meetings, technology, communications, governance and much more
The best assistants are always learning, through experience and by engaging in professional development.
While plans for a number of conferences and other in-person learning opportunities have been postponed, that needn’t put a pause on your professional growth.
In fact, given the way the 2020s are unfolding, it may be more critical than ever to continue to connect, learn and adapt. I’ve been adapting as well, and am now offering a series of webinars focused on how to navigate and succeed during these pandexit times.

I present on current best practices
I draw on extensive experience in the career and, just as importantly, on my own ongoing investments of time and resources in scanning and staying attuned to developments in cybersecurity, governance, and the business world.
I do so because what happens in these spheres impacts the way wise assistants will want to approach everything from digital practices to business acumen to how you add value to (and impact) your employer.
Post-event access to webinar recording
You’ll have access to a recording of the webinar after our live session. This can come in handy if you’d like to review a concept, and if time zones or people throw your schedule for a loop the day of a webinar.
Certificates of attendance
After attending, you’ll receive a certificate of attendance to add to your portfolio and help track your professional development. Such records are also useful when preparing for performance reviews/evaluations.
Investments in quality and yourself
In other words, when you attend Shelagh’s webinars, you’re investing in quality and in yourself.
