Tip #4 to a Great Workplace For Administrative Assistants (and everyone else!)
Administrative Assistants Inspirational Motivational Speaker Conor Cunneen writes: We are all creatures of our environment – The environment you create and the environment others create. When I reflect on the people I enjoyed working with, when I reflect on the people, bosses, colleagues, subordinates that I would go the extra yard for, one characteristic sticks out. These people were positive in word and thought.
There is one simple way to improve the positivity in your environment. Take a deliberate, intentional decision to use positive words in your conversation with colleagues. I’m not asking you to go crazy, but how often do you use words like
Amazing, Awesome
Bright, Bubbly,
Considerate, Cheerful
Dynamic, Delightful
Energizing, Effective
Focused, Friendly, Fearless
You know that if someone says you are:
Amazing, Awesome
Bright, Bubbly,
Considerate, Cheerful
Dynamic, Delightful
Energizing, Effective
Focused, Friendly, Fearless, that you will respond positively. You will appreciate that person who says positive things about you. Guess what? If you say positive things to that person, they are likely to respond positively and they will appreciate you.
So why not use positive words more often? Set yourself a daily Micro-Goal to say something positive to a co-worker or colleague today and everyday. Setting and achieving this Micro–Goal will impact your colleagues and you in – guess what? – a positive manner.
Motivational Speaker for Administrative Professionals: Tip #2 to a Great Workplace
HEAR the words “THANK YOU.”
As a motivational speaker for Administrative Professionals who once relied on many a harried (and I admit sometimes underappreciated) Administrative Assistant to keep me someway on the right track, and now as a speaker for Administrative Professionals Day / Week, I often think about what makes the difference in a workplace environment.

Motivational Speaker for Administrative Professionals: Here’s Tip #2 to a Great Workplace: HEAR the words “Thank You.”
I believe that there are some simple but highly effective tips, tricks and techniques to enhance the work environment. I actually position them as Micro-Goals. One basic Micro-Goal that anyone can adopt is:
Hear the words “Thank You.”
Now, you’re probably wondering “What is the Irish guy thinking about?” Two of the most motivational words in the English language are “Thank You.” Quite likely, you were told those words a few times yesterday, but you did not ay attention – they went in one ear and out the other.
However, if you set yourself a daily Micro-Goal to actually HEAR the words “Thank You,” a few things will happen.
-
You will do something definite to HEAR “Thank You.”
-
Someone will appreciate what you have done.
-
Your simple action will enhance that persons view of you, likely leading to a better work environment
-
Because you have achieved a simple Micro-Goal, you personally will feel a sense of achievement – no matter how minor – and feel better about yourself.

HEAR the words “THANK YOU.”
As a motivational speaker for Administrative Professionals who once relied on many a harried (and I admit sometimes underappreciated) Administrative Assistant to keep me someway on the right track, I often think about what makes the difference in a workplace environment. I know the words “Thank You” are two of the most motivational in the English language. They are also words that employees at all levels need to hear more often and most definitely as a speaker for administrative professionals week, I strongly encourage the use of these words not just during administrative assistants / professionals week but every day of the work week AND every day of the weekend!

Administrative Professionals Motivational Speaker: Compliment Your Colleagues
As a speaker who once relied on Administrative Professionals to keep me someway on the right track, and now as a speaker for Administrative Professionals Day / Week, I often think about what makes the difference in a workplace environment.
As you will see from this short video clip, I truly believe that complements are one of the best ways to create a powerful and lasting bond with your fellow administrative assistants, work colleagues, subordinates or superiors.
Everyone appreciates complements.
Everyone also appreciates the person who gives the complement.
So, here’s the question folks. Do you complement your colleagues?

The Very Impressive Lexi Thompson and Choosing Your Attitude
This gallery contains 1 photo.
Lexi Thompson and What do I want my Attitude to be?
In his wonderful book, Man’s Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl wrote that everything can be taken from a person, except the ability to choose your attitude in even the worst circumstances.
Whether we like it or not, we all hit pot holes and speed bumps and one person who really hit that pot hole yesterday was Lexi Thompson, and I am sure Viktor Frankl would be proud of her.
