Welcome to 2016:  A Wish for YOU
The new year - a time for fresh beginnings, renewed hopes and those dreaded resolutions...
After years of making resolutions, with some achieved and others not, I have taken a new    approach to kicking off the new year.  Rather than making resolutions, I am "recommitting" myself to something that is important to me, that is, making a promise to myself to take steps to move forward in my life.
This year, I have recommitted myself to trying to be the best that I can be in my professional role.  Through my work with OSUAP and other professional development opportunities, I will continue to seek ways to improve my skills and to network with and learn from others.  By far, my greatest resource is our OSUAP community.  All of you bring with you a unique blend of knowledge, expertise and innovation, independent of your job title or years in your role. I am filled with gratitude to have you as my peers and mentors.
As you know, the life of an administrative professional is very busy.  Most days, there is barely enough time to accomplish the things that you must.  Recognizing the scarcity of time, my wish for YOU is that you take some time to reflect on last year, look ahead to this year, and make it a point to recommit or commit to something that matters most to YOU.  As you go through the year, try to take advantage of opportunities that benefit you - and be kind to  yourself if you are progressing more slowly or differently than you had planned.  If possible, see if one of your friends has set similar goals and you can take the journey together.  On a related note, please take time for YOU. Whether it's a short break to breathe and calm your mind, or a moment to remind yourself to appreciate all that is YOU, or outings with people you enjoy, those things (and others) can go a long way in revitalizing and centering you.
I look ahead to 2016 with optimism and enthusiasm and I wish you a year filled with much success and happiness!
-Elaine Pritchard

What Administrative Professionals Need to Know About Project Management Solutions

Those of you who support Project Managers, especially PMP

certified folks, you already know the terminology and basic concepts of Project Management. Even if you don't, you have been part of

projects in the past.

But, do you consider yourself a Project Manager?

Reminder:
Central Ohio is adding an area code - 380 - requiring a switch to 10-digit dialing. Callers now must dial the area code (three digits) followed by the phone number (seven digits) for all local calls. Central Ohio added an area code to increase the number of available phone numbers; with an additional area code identical 7-digit phone numbers with different area codes can be issued in the same geographical area.
10-digit dialing can be used immediately, but it becomes mandatory across central Ohio for all local calls on January 30, 2016. There is no change to dialing numbers that on campus - if you currently use five digits to dial a number on campus, such as 8-4357 (8-HELP), you will continue to use five digits to dial these numbers. To get ready, you should:
* Reprogram your equipment - make sure your saved cell phone numbers include the area code
* Include department 10-digit phone numbers on checks, forms and stationery and update databases - for students, employees, suppliers, etc.
The  ever-growing  popularity  of  new  telecommunications  services  and  changes in  the  competitive environment are driving a huge increase in demand for phone numbers in the region. The demand for new phone numbers is driven not only by increased device and cellphone use but also by an increase in machine-to-machine communication by devices that accept credit cards such as gasoline pumps and vending machines.
