If that is the case you will have even more phone calls, meetings and general engagement with other Directors and top-level members of staff. Here are my etiquette tips when it comes to working with the Executive team. As assistants most of us will interact with our organisation’s Executive team on a daily if not hourly basis.

I sat at my kitchen table watching my phone blow up while people were emailing and IM’ing me all at the same time wanting to know why they couldn’t get on the call. I think along with this question I would also like to know if you have etiquette tips about emailing with the other EA’s on the client side of things.

Sometimes I wish I had something to warn me when I am with someone with a cell phone so I can know that we are going to be interrupted. I find it frustrating when people either text while in a conversation or are constantly taking phone calls. Apparently not, when its by phone. In an emergency, the cell phone is a useful tool.

Some people in the office were trying to get the remote working as we had a PowerPoint presentation coming up and were calling it things like remote thingy , remote slide clicker, wireless mouse so I finally asked, "Does anyone know what the official name for that thing is?" It's called a Presentation Remote. Thanks Patty.

And who bothers writing out the words e-mail, TV, ASAP or FYI when everyone will know what you mean anyway? Does anyone even know what CNN stands for? It has become such a common initialism that it is recognized immediately and everyone knows what it is. If you find some are outdated please let me know so I can remove them from this list.

I was in a workshop today on presentation skills and one of the things they had us do was present something to the group while they filmed us. Other than the extra work I need to do at the gym to tone up and trim down, I saw some good qualities as well and it was helpful to see myself present. Thanks Anonymous for sharing.

What is the proper etiquette when addressing or writing to a President? Here is a video link on the proper etiquette to address a President. Everyone up here calls him Obama and our Prime Minister is called Harper. Why do we not use their full name? Or it is that we just dont know how to address them so revert to last names?
