  • No authorization.
  • No clear objectives.
  • No assistant  tools.
  • Top management aim to profits regardless how !
  • You are alone in this department and your tasks should be taken achieved by ten employees.
  • Big mess.

Admin people constantly face challenges as follows:

  1. Always pressed for time....... with so many jobs of different nature.
  2. Everybody needs everything urgently and then you have to prioritize accordingly.
  3. In spite of prior planning, new tasks will pop up as soon as you enter  the office  and so you  have to compromise with your initial planning
  4. A lot of small but important jobs you need to handle or  supervise.
  5. You need to be master of so many things like transport operations, facility management, property management, Air travel, conference management, security management, Human resources and Information technology. You need to study a lot to survive  and make a lasting change in the office.

I may say following:

  1. Responsibilities without authority
  2. Non Co-operative team
  3. No appreciation or rewards on achievements even recognition
  4. un-ethical work environment

Thanks for invitation,

I do believe that the most challenge is to avoid "Bad Time Management".

Administrative professionals are the members of your team who keep operations running smoothly, and they are often on the front lines of customer interactions. That's why losing an administrative staff member or encountering unanticipated surges in workload can create tough administrative challenges for you.

1. They can be forced to deal with difficult personalities

2. They can be seen as someone of lesser importance

3. They can be expected to clean up after everyone

4. They can be expected to fix anything and everything

5. They can be expected to know everything, even when not included in meetings and private conversations

6. They can be blamed for anything that goes wrong

7. They can be expected to always be available

8. They can have their desk used as a dumping station

9. They can have no privacy

10. They can lack physical activity

11. They can sometimes be the butt of the office jokes.

 

12. They can be underpaid and feel unappreciated.

Thanks to the invitation, there are many challenges facing the administrative process depending on the type and scope of the institution's work as well as the nature of the person and the role he plays in the management and in making decisions. There are challenges related to employees and the work environment and others are related to the authorities and responsibilities, others are related to customers and some challenges arise from the process of making plans and policies , And these greetings are often influenced and influenced by each other, but the greatest challenge is to exercise the administrative process as such

No Authority, Restriction to make decisions on his own, unclear objectives, communication gap. HR policies which can be manipulated by other employees.

One might be faced with an organisational problem. Too many things to do at the same time and not knowing on which door to knock.

  • unclear objectives
  • no time management

The number one challenge we usually face in administrative position is when there is a constant change in the administration position. Every time someone new came from a Higher Position, we need to adopt from his/her new policies and new routines but as someone working in an administrative department, you must be fully aware and flexible enough to adopt in new challenges.
