McALLEN, Texas – The McAllen Chamber of Commerce and the City of McAllen are proud to host its annual Administrative Professionals Day Luncheon on Tuesday, April 23, at the McAllen Convention Center. Doors will open at 11:00 AM, with the luncheon beginning at 11:30 AM. This highly anticipated event, which sold out last year, is expected to welcome over 400 attendees to celebrate the invaluable contributions of administrative professionals.
This year’s keynote speaker is Wendy Knight, a seasoned executive with a remarkable career spanning financial services, private equity, and nonprofit leadership. Knight’s address, “How to Pivot Even When You Think You Got It All Figured Out,” will share insights on navigating change and seizing new opportunities. Her experience leading Sea Turtle Inc. through the largest cold stun rescue in history has inspired many, making her the perfect speaker for this year’s theme of adaptability and resilience.
In addition to Knight’s keynote, the luncheon will feature the prestigious Administrative Assistant of the Year Award, recognizing an outstanding professional for their dedication and impact. The honoree will receive special recognition and a prize in appreciation of their hard work. To nominate an administrative profession: https://bit.ly/mcallenadmin.
