Top Ten Tips to Building and Maintaining a Successful Relationship with your Administrator

Amy Laughlin, NAAP President, Administrator/Activity Professional

  1. Be Open & Honest with Communication

Have the courage to go to your Administrator and professionally express yourself. Ask for what you need (supplies, additional manpower for a special project, capital expense) – all they can is no!

  1. Be Solutions-Based
