Tips for an Executive Personal Assistant on Organising a Conference

Start with the specifics. As with any event, communication is crucial to event planning. Be sure to talk to your boss to set expectations and enquire about the intended outcome. Confirm the budget, the purpose of the event, the number of people expected to attend, the facilities needed, and the other significant aspects of the conference. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box. You don’t have to limit yourself to everyday venues or traditional setups. Find an unexpected but highly suitable venue that is certain to impress your boss as well as the conference participants. Naturally, you will still need to run these ideas by your boss, so make sure your plans are solid and well-thought-out before you deliver your presentation.

Creative Lifestyle Management: Essential when Travelling with a Baby

A new rule that took effect in April this year allows parents in the U.K. to spend more quality time with their new born children. Called the Shared Parental Leave (SPL), the policy allows both parents to take time off for up to 50 weeks (either in one block or in separate periods) within the birth of their child right up to the baby’s first birthday. The SPL is paid for up to 37 weeks, provided one’s employer has been duly notified. Although the new legislation is primarily intended to make childrearing a hands-on experience for both parents, couples can also use this time to plan family holidays. After all, you deserve to take a break from work and celebrate the arrival of your bundle of joy.
