Networking: What if it all started with “Hello!”?

**In French, with videotranscription in English**

 

The role of an assistant relies on a strength that is too often overlooked: networking. In this conference, Anick Labonté reminds us of the importance of having contacts within the organization, but also in several other areas (suppliers, hotels, restaurants, transportation, or other companies) to find solutions quickly. She also emphasizes politeness and courtesy as keys to building trust, as well as the use of powerful tools to develop a cross-functional and effective network. An inspiring presentation that highlights simple networking principles for professional success.

15h15 - Panel

Rethinking an essential profession at the epicenter of transformation: the future of the healthcare administrative profession

The healthcare environment is changing fast. Digital tools, artificial intelligence, new managerial expectations, internal reorganizations... the work of administrative and executive assistants is evolving, and requires us to reflect on the future of their profession in the healthcare field.

This panel will give the floor to experts in recruitment and training to ask a simple but essential question:

How can we prepare today's and tomorrow's assistants to cope with an ever-changing daily routine?

We'll be discussing :

  • key skills emerging in healthcare establishments;
  • the impact of technology on administrative tasks;
  • realities on the ground, between downsizing and rising expectations;
  • the role of training institutions, managers and HR departments in better accompanying this evolution.

An inspiring discussion, lucid and rooted in the reality of the network, to enhance the value of these essential roles... and better equip them for the future.
