Learning how to work under pressure and tough deadlines.  This comes in handy when your director asks you to produce a complicated report for a meeting that starts in five minutes.\n\nLearning how to prioritize.  Which task should I do first?  The one my director said was due this morning or the one the president of the company wanted right away?\n\nLearning to work as part of a team.  "I want to kick this m*therf**king b*tch upside the head" (I scream in my head), but outwardly I smile and say, Yes of course you're absolutely right, I'll see that it gets done right away.\n\nLearning to produce magnificent miracles with a minuscule budget.  The constant phrase each year is, "It's cut-back time"\n\nLearning to dress and maintain a professional demeanour.  Even though you want to have a drag out, kick fest fight with that b*tch in accounting, you smile and say "Good morning and how are you today" in your chirpiest voice.

Use action verbs to accentuate your accomplishments.\n\nExample: \n\n"Improved productivity 5% by optimizing office workflow"\n\ninstead of "Managed office activities"

The referenced form below is for project team members rather than the project manager, but it might get you started.\n\nIn general you have to be very careful about evaluating a project manager's performance.  If a project is successfull, is that because the PM did a great job, or because the project team really worked hard in spite of the PM.  Did the project that ran smoothly not have any problems - it was an easy project - or was the project manager able to do a good job, plan ahead and avoid many issues

I was the secretary in an government office job for 5 years and I carried them! You are responsible for keeping track of everything and you must do it well. It is the public's money you are dealing with! The commissioner was a man, but I had a sign in the office that read: "Do you want to talk to the man in charge, or the woman that knows what is going on?".

Introduce the new person to everyone where they will be working.  Make sure they know where the bathrooms are, the vending machines, the smoking area, etc., etc.  Then explain, in general terms, just what it is that your department does, who does it, and why they do it.  Don't forget your vision/mission statement and your core values (if any).  Then hand them off to their supervisor, who will likely tell them the way things REALLY work and what their duties will now be.
