Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

JANUARY 8, 2013

This company is so ginormous I am having a dizzy time of trying to wrap my brain around what all they do – various forms of power, civil engineering, and then the IT services side of it.

If there are forms that need to filled in and it has a due date in June, I put those forms in the June folder with a bf date on it for a week before it is due. For paper things that I need to remember to follow up on, I put the letter or document in my Wait Bin (which is a tray for things I am waiting on). Thats great!

Now dont forget to put the correct year on your documents. You can also insert the date and get it to update automatically by clicking on Update Automatically in the Date and Time dialogue box.

Especially when you are cutting and pasting in a 200 page document!!

Put it in a folder for your boss’s signature in completed form, i.e. envelope clipped to letter and attachments. If you are sending the letter by regular mail, courier or registered mail, make sure you have the proper postage, courier slips or forms filled out. I usually put a sticky note on it for that as well.
