Traditionally, executive assistants were seen as secretarial staff, making copies and answering phone calls. Include a specific contact person for queries, an email address or a link to the application portal. Look for answers indicating a balance between personal integrity and company policies.

While this makes sense, it doesn’t mean you should ignore behind-the-scenes business administration tasks, such as setting policies. Policies that outline how you run various elements of your business, and why you do it that way, set boundaries and create a foundation for the business. When will you answer calls and return calls?

In an attempt to answer this question I first did a quick Google search and was astonished to find a number of websites detailing the skills required for sales people and cold callers to ‘get past the gatekeeper’. This could mean monitoring their phone calls, emails and meeting requests.

To achieve your goals, you must develop a customer care policy that’s understood and adhered to by every member of your team. And with online reviews so common at Google and Yelp, a “best practices” policy will do more than increase customer retention.

And so when you do it at a team level and you have all these teams basically having their own policy, their own team agreements, then it also works as a company. But actually what we ended up doing is just send a lot more emails and communicate a lot more. Oh, I don’t need to write long emails anymore. What is the result?

Use your cell phone alarm Chances are, you use your calendar to remind you about meetings and any important events. However, I found that not helpful and I’ve always used my cell phone’s alarm clock. I have an Apple phone so I use the “chimes” tone because it’s soft, sounds pretty, and is not as disruptive as other sounds available.

Your company may have a policy on how they want you to address people in external business e-mail. Your company may have a strict policy on what they want you to include in the signature line and what it should look like, but generally you would include your name, title, company name and address, telephone and fax number. Who are you?

Arguably, Smartphones are less about the “phone&# and more about the “Smart.&# I’m not presenting an argument that Android phones (G1, myTouch, CLIQ, Droid, and the newly debuted Nexus One – THE Google Phone ) will win over any other phone. Google Apps did everything except Tasks.

I already use my Motorola CLIQ for reading emails and RSS feeds. The app will be free, and you’ll purchase books for it via web or directly on the phone. If I’m away from my computer, I just whip out my phone and run the Free Dictionary app to look it up. The words are CACHED on your phone. So why not books?
