The International Association of Administrative
Professionals (IAAP) is the world's leading organization for
office professionals. The Harford Chapter IAAP, a
member of the DE-MD-DC Division, was chartered in April 2003
with 16 members. We have 40 members and continue to grow. We
meet the 3rd. Monday of every month at Harford Community
College, beginning with dinner at 5:30 pm (dinner cost is
$13.00) followed by a program geared toward the administrative
professional. We invite you to join a dynamic group of
professionals who continue to grow both professionally and
personally through their association with IAAP.
If you would like additional information about the Harford
Chapter or would like to join us at our monthly meetings, feel
free to contact Chapter Secretary, Jen Labe at:

There
are huge benefits derived from participation in IAAP. As
a member of IAAP you have endless opportunities to learn
and grow. Alas, one of the most underutilized strategies
toward personal success and achievement is chapter
leadership participation.
You are lucky if
you have that natural leadership ability. But, the truth
is, most people have to learn leadership skills.
Leadership can be learned. But, leadership qualities are
not acquired through osmosis. It’s a learned skill just
like any other; reading books about leadership,
observing leaders in action and most of all, doing.
Learn by doing.
There is nothing
that can’t be accomplished when we set our goals high
and believe in ourselves and each other.

Membership New Member Mentor Program |
We are happy to
announce the establishment of our member mentoring
program. Being mentored will help new members get
acclimated to chapter policies and procedures and will
allow new member to become orientated to the many
options to grow and learn in IAAP. We want new members
to feel comfortable asserting themselves and to be
willing to take on some new challenges. We'll try to
identify individual talents and interests and utilize
those qualities for the advancement of our chapter and
for the personal fulfillment of that participant.

Recently, Harford Chapter ordered
two baskets from
Executive Gift Planners
to use as raffle items to promote our chapter. Pictured right
are the baskets that I dubbed “Chocolate Delight.” A
profusion of chocolaty goodness was packaged into pretty little
knick-knack holders and beautifully wrapped. Lori generously
donated these two items to our chapter and we thank her. EGP
provides creative custom gift services, reasonable prices and
and prompt courteous service. Contact Lori for your corporate or
personal gift giving needs. |
