The poll is based on more than 500 responses received on the IAAP Web site between February 15 and March 15, 2001. Formerly known Professional Secretaries Week, this event has been sponsored by the Kansas City, Missouri-based IAAP annually since 1952. Administrative Professionals Day is Wednesday, April 25. The poll also asked respondents about the evolving nature of their jobs. These results point to the continued growth in responsibilities for administrative professionals, particularly the ability to manage an increasing level of work and to operate more independently.
Administrative professionals are generally satisfied with their supervisors.
