The Gold From The Effective Admin Newsletter

YOU GET A 211 page eBook called The Gold

Before the paid subscription of the revised The Effective Admin newsletter debuted, a free version of the newsletter was issued for over three years (circulated to 3,000 admins who opted in to receive it -- some hearing about its jewels through word of mouth). The Gold is an eBook compilation of dozens of the best articles and interviews from that version of the original The Effective Admin newsletter. These previously free newsletter issues prior to 2008 are full of informational gems from The Effective Admin editor and other experts interviewed for articles and tips. These issues also include advice and survey responses from your administrative professional peers on a variety of issues related to your admin job and career.
NOTE: These newsletter issues are no longer available to the general public and will never be again. But as a VAAP member, you get the best of those early issues of The Effective Admin in one place: The Gold eBook.
Print this eBook, put the pages in a binder, and keep it forever to refer to again and again as needed in your job and career. Or just file the PDF file version somewhere handy on your computer so you can read it or just search through it for words, phrases, and articles of interest.

Topics in The Gold eBook range from √how to get a raise and √how to resolve a negative conflict to √how to be more assertive and much more -- all detailed in ways specific to administrative professionals.

It's all PRACTICAL information you can easily understand and use starting today. Many Topics ... covered in a total of 200+ pages (includes a table of contents to help you easily locate any article topic quickly in all those pages) in The Gold.
