Picture an efficiently running office, from timely emails to well-coordinated meetings. At its core is an Office Manager, the linchpin who juggles multiple roles ranging from administration to IT! And while the job certainly can come with a lot of stress, it doesn’t always come with an equal amount of recognition. 

Office Managers are expected to guide processes and tasks, manage diverse teams, and hold things together…often without anyone realizing how vital their role is! 

They have to stay flexible and ready to tackle new challenges without much preparation time. When things don’t go according to plan, it might be up to the Office Manager to work late or come in on the weekend to get a process or project back on track!

In the evolving world of office management, keeping up to date is vital! Remote work management is a major trend, with large parts of the American labor force now working from home. Office Managers have adapted in order to oversee remote teams and ensure workers keep up with tasks while staying motivated. 

AI and other automation tools are revolutionizing the way countless tasks are handled, keeping Office Managers busy as they learn, implement, and train others on these new methods of doing things. 

Meanwhile, in every industry there’s an increased emphasis on sustainable practices, so Office Managers are trying to help organizations stay as paperless as possible. These are just a few of the trends impacting this dynamic career field! 

Office Managers tend to be highly organized individuals capable of multitasking and staying focused. They may develop these skills from an early age, perhaps through school activities or due to being given responsibilities and chores at home. They usually have great leadership and management skills, which can develop through extracurricular activities such as playing team sports, for example!
