Executive assistants are running meetings, making hiring decisions, giving presentations, negotiating contracts, managing budgets and are considered co-leaders. I talk with thousands of assistants and managers who think they are communicating with each other because they text or email each other all day. This is not communicating.

But I've interviewed enough experts and read enough research to know that many people are consumed with "busyness" and aren't really productive. I think that too many people send an email to a colleague about 10 feet away, or even on another floor, when they could simply walk over to the person and have a conversation.
