However, at 26, thanks to an awesome executive, I learned how a strategic partnership should work and I taught every executive after that how to work with me. Or if you get off schedule because of heavy executive travel, get back on schedule as soon as possible. Now not every executive or manager will want this partnership.

I hear managers or Human Resource Professionals say it doesn’t take any special skill to be an administrative assistant. A stellar Executive Assistant must think of every detail for every function such as calendar management, travel planning, meeting preparation and execution, and e-mail management. Intuitive.

I learned that these dismissive demeanors and disrespectful behaviors had to do with the disparate perceptions about what assistants actually do. If the situation is to change, then EAs need to participate in the assertion about what assistants do and the responsibilities they now hold. Oh, and bullied by managers and peers?

“Fair&# and “unfair&# are mental constructs, ways of integrating an unexplainable mystery into a manageable system. Because a manageable system creates the illusion of control. The more we categorize, the more we manage, the more we integrate, the more we believe we are in control. Never was and never will be.
