In
yesterday's workplace, the role of "secretary" or "clerical
specialist" or even "administrative assistant" was
a rather narrowly defined one that demanded a high level of competence
but a fairly basic set of skills. Today, these essential members
of the organizational team are recognized as true professionals
with a widely varied and highly specialized set of skills. A large
portion of these skills are technology based, but the diversity
of today's workplace demands a broad range of human relation and
critical-thinking skills as well.
