Administration professionals are the lifeblood of any organisation. Think about it, would James Bond really have been so successful without Moneypenny? Would Wernham Hogg have been able to cope without Dawn Tinsley? Could Iron Man find the time to save the world without Pepper Potts? The answer is, of course, no.
The fact of the matter is that every organisation needs administration professionals. They are the people who keep the office running smoothly every day by always keeping on top of things, well informed, and organised. It’s safe to say that without administrative professionals, everyone else’s productivity would fall because many essential tasks just wouldn’t get done.
