Admin Week 2016: We’re Taking It Over (Again)
Editor’s Note: For Admin Week 2019, we pulled back the curtain on how you achieve the impossible. A Ninja’s work isn’t an illusion or trickery. It’s not magic. It’s a phenomenon. See highlights from our week-long celebration!
If you don’t do it, it probably won’t get done.
We understand this, Ninja. But we 100% refuse to let you buy your own card for Administrative Professionals Day.
First of all, that’s just silly. Second of all, we don’t think Hallmark really gets the scope and importance of your job. And lastly (and most importantly), a card? Nope, that’s not gonna cut it.
Hence the 2nd Annual Admin Week Celebration! If you missed last year’s week-long celebration of everything Office Ninja, you’re in luck because we’re bringing it back! (And if you were around for #AdminWeek2015, you know we don’t mess around!)

We’re conducting a national online search for the best and brightest Office Ninjas in the country. (Read about last year’s winners here!)

Every day of Admin Week we’ll feature a “flash raffle” for prizes on OfficeNinjas.com. The raffle will open each morning, and winners will be announced the following day. It’s free to enter and there are tons of chances to win. Last year we gave away furniture and office supplies from Poppin, sweet treats from Sprinkles, healthy snack subscriptions from Love with Food, and over $1,800 in free travel from Uber and Delta Air Lines. Stay tuned for this year’s prize lineup!
4th Annual Admin Bash in San Francisco
Event Date: Wed, April 27, 2016, 5:30-9:00pm
Registration Opens: Mon, January 25, 2016
Not to swing our own nunchucks, but we know how to throw a party. Just ask the 350 Ninjas who attended last year’s sold out event. The Admin Bash has all the networking of a first-class corporate event… but, honestly, it feels more like a party. Expect tasty gourmet bites, open bar, massage lounge, interactive meet and greets, face time with our amazing vendor friends, amazing raffle prizes, our legendary gift bag, and more.
And, you never know. We may have a few other surprises up our sleeves…
So, mark your calendars, get excited, and signup here to get notifications about all things Admin Week.
What part of #AdminWeek are you most excited about?
Come to Charlotte. It’s a big Finance/Banking Hub and we have PLENTY of AA here!!!!! :-) Can we get some East Coast Looooooove!!! :-)
A future East Coast Ninja takeover is definitely in the works! Watch this space for updates & we’ll absolutely keep Charlotte in mind :)
WOOHOO! I’m excited to hear OfficeNinjas will be coming to the East Coast…I can’t wait!
Sounds like fun!! I’m really excited about the flash raffles and reading about the All Stars that are chosen. Not sure I’ll make it to the party in SF, but I’m sure it will be a BLAST!
Thanks Nicole!! We’d love to see you make it to the Admin Bash, but at the very least, here’s to hoping you with a prize from the flash raffles!
When will NYC be getting some Office Ninjas love? I haven’t heard of a New York event in quite some time and would love to see one here again sometime soon.
We’re working on it Michelle! NYC is such an admin/assistant hub so it’s definitely on our radar :) We’ll be sure to let you know when we have something planned!
