Talking about Administration Job Role What Everyone thinking about... ("Thanksless Job") is it???? In a bustling city hall, there worked a diligent administrative assistant named Emily. Her days were filled with endless paperwork, scheduling meetings, and handling inquiries from citizens and colleagues alike. Emily's job was often deemed "thanksless" because much of her work happened behind the scenes. Despite this, she approached her responsibilities with unwavering dedication and a positive attitude. Every morning, Emily arrived early to ensure everything was organized for the day ahead. She managed multiple calendars seamlessly, anticipating potential conflicts and finding solutions proactively. Throughout the day, Emily fielded phone calls and emails, patiently addressing each query and ensuring every visitor felt welcomed and valued. She knew the importance of her role in keeping things running smoothly, even if her efforts weren't always acknowledged. Despite the challenges, Emily found fulfillment in the small victories—a smile from a relieved citizen helped, or a grateful nod from a busy colleague whose meeting was seamlessly arranged. One day, during a departmental meeting, the city manager took a moment to acknowledge Emily's contributions. With genuine appreciation, they praised her for her hard work and reliability, highlighting how her efficiency and attention to detail had significantly eased the workload for everyone. Emily felt a warm sense of validation. It wasn't about seeking recognition, but knowing that her efforts made a tangible difference. She continued to tackle her "thanksless" job with renewed vigor, knowing that her dedication was valued by those who mattered most. Who is agree with this????? But I am not................... If you talking about me, here is apart of #Kochartech #Maxicus The story is totally different, getting highly appreciation from the Management.  I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the recent support and presence of our management team during a particularly challenging period. Your decision to come down to the ground level, engage directly with the team, and witness firsthand the daily challenges we face was incredibly impactful. It demonstrated your commitment to understanding our perspectives and working alongside us to find solutions. #Kochartech #Maxicus #Admin #ValuableJob #Administration

During my tech training days, we were exposed to different niches and was expected to have one or two ideas about them, glad I was open to learn about them before narrowing down to a particular area. We often hear about Jack of all trades , master of none…. But that shouldn’t limit you from gaining knowledge outside your scope, while perfecting in your field. Versatility is a key asset in the modern workplace. It allows professionals to adapt to changing demands and take on a variety of roles, which has been valuable to me especially in dynamic fields like customer support and virtual assistance. For someone like me, who has combined being an administrative assistant and a customer support agent, versatility means being able to handle a wide range of tasks and challenges. This adaptability did not only enhances my skill set but also significantly benefits the customers I interact with by providing them with efficient, personalized, and high-quality service. How have you found your versatility impacting your daily work and interactions with customers? Have you noticed any particular areas where it has made a significant difference? Meeting me for the first time, I am an experienced virtual assistant and customer support specialist dedicated to providing efficient and empathetic services to my clients #linkedlngrowth #careertransition #globalvisibilitychallengewithDrVivianMagnus

Presenting to you our #staffstory of the month! 😊 Name: Marcel Siebein  Position: Head of Partner Management 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲? I’m taking care of the partner program team and our ecosystem of agency partners, consultants and technology partners (ISV). My main task is to connect with new and existing partners, assure that they have the information they need to work with Actindo Core1 and deliver excellent projects to our merchants. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞? As the daily way to work is limited (just some meters from the living room to the home office), I decided to invest in a height-adjustable desk and to change positions at least twice a day - at least some physical movement. For better video quality, I’m happy about an additional camera light. I think it's just nice if people can see one's face and expressions clearly, even when it gets dark outside early. Other than that, my working style from home is not too different from an office situation. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐚𝐲? Unlike most of the others, I go to sports in the morning before I turn on the computer. It feels better knowing that I wouldn’t have time constraints in the evening. Time boxing during the day is also good to limit the time working as time flies, especially in a remote world. When the computer is shut down, my evenings usually start with a nicely prepared dinner and some background music just like in a hotel or a nice lounge area. Changing the type of external input helps me to change my mind.    #lifeatactindo #growwithus #employeestories #wearehiring #actindo #unifiedcommerce #retailtechnology

WHY I CHOOSE TO TRANSITION INTO BECOMING A VIRTUAL ASSISTANT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE PROFESSIONAL. For a long time, I thought my physical job was the only path for me and the only path I knew. But over time, I started feeling disconnected and unfulfilled. I realised that the daily grind wasn’t sparking joy or giving me the sense of purpose I craved anymore. But transitioning into the world of virtual assistance and customer service has been an exciting new direction for me, and I thought to share a bit about why I chose this path with you. 🌟 Flexibility Meets Passion: I’ve always been a passionate person, and I also love helping people and solving problems in the little ways I can. Becoming a virtual assistant allows me to channel that passion into assisting businesses and customers while enjoying the flexibility of remote work. 📚 Continuous Learning: This role offers endless opportunities to grow my skills, whether it's by mastering new tools, improving communication strategies to serve clients better, or even learning about the versatility of the field, hence a chance at improving and enhancing myself even more. 💼 Making a Difference: It’s really fulfilling to know that my work contributes to the smooth operation of businesses, helping both teams and customers achieve their goals. To know that putting my skills to good use helps someone out there. Whether it's managing daily tasks, providing excellent customer support, or organising and scheduling things, I’m here to make things easier and smoother. ✨️Lessons Learnt From Early Experiences: From a very young age, I spent almost every day of my life helping my mom in her boutique, whether it was stocking shelves, assisting customers, or managing a busy day. Watching and helping my mom interact with customers, solve problems, and run her business taught me invaluable lessons that have shaped and still help me today. 🤭Also, this is a thank-you post to Victoria Ezechukwu 🌟, Adeife Adeoye, Odosa Egharevba, and the rest of you who teach and inspire us.🥰 I’m very excited to continue building my experience and growing in this field. For those who’ve been in the industry, what’s one piece of advice you’d share with someone just starting out? I’d love to hear from you! #VirtualAssistant #CustomerService #NewCareer #GrowthMindset #ContinuousLearning #CareerJourney #CareerTransition #RemoteWork #WoringFromHome #LearningAndGrowing
