Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

MAY 24, 2013

It’s best not to gossip or form secret alliances. Work is work, it's not a so ap opera. :) On the first day you should follow their example. The goal is to fit into what exists already and understand your role in the organization/seniority. Be willing to learn a lot, wear a lot of hats, not complain, and follow their lead.

For example, you start speaking in short hand to other assistants and it doesn’t come across as rude because it’s meant to be efficient and not waste time with small talk. LOL I don’t divulge because I don’t have any and it’s not good to gossip.
