8.8. What’s My Role?
Exercises
An event of any size should essentially be thought of as a project. The Office Administrator’s role will be supportive in most cases. However, there may be times when you’re leading an event planning team. You will be responsible for taking minutes at all planning meetings, but you might also be responsible for doing research in terms of venue, catering, entertainment, etc. For event planning, it is key for the Office Administrator to be flexible and ready to take on whatever task is asked.
Once again, your time management, information gathering, document organization, and clear communication skills will serve you well when supporting an event planning team.
