EAN MEMBERSHIP (EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT NETWORK)

OVERVIEW.

It all started with an expectation – (worried about the future of the Personal Assistant) – raised during the Personal Assistants symposium held at Silvers Springs Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya between 29th May and 1st June 2006 organised by African Renaissance Centre, Swaziland. What if the Personal Assistants would have an opportunity to join hands, share and embrace ever-changing roles in their profession? As the story of “Who Moved my cheese’ a story originally told by Dr. Spencer Johnson illustrates Personal Assistants must embrace change. Following the symposium, African Renaissance Centre a Management Development Organisation based in Mbabane, Kingdom of Swaziland established an Personal Assistants Network to reach to Secretaries, Personal Assistants/Secretaries.
