April 24, 2024 Whitman Celebrated Administrative Professionals Day

Let this be day a reminder of the importance and contributions of administrative staff to the smooth operation of an organization.

It’s that time again in offices around the country, National Administrative Professionals Day is April 24th! It’s important to recognize the contributions of administrative staff to the smooth operation of an organization. Administrators manage many less glamorous parts of day to day operations, whether it’s managing emails and calendars, filing, ensuring office supplies are in stock, and sometimes working with finance or social media. If you chose to have a big office celebration, or a nice donut breakfast, it’s important to acknowledge the value that administrators bring to the workplace and to let them know that they are appreciated.
