She is a lawyer, freelance writer, and dedicated traveler. That childlike wonder of experiencing a new place for the first time is what draws me to travel as much as possible, both internationally and domestically within the US. Google Docs works too.

Make sure that tasks directly associated with clients come first, consider the financial impact of a project and its completion date on the company, don’t let deadlines control the priority list (expense reports can wait when there are more important tasks), and consider cause and effect (do A to enable B, which accomplishes C).

One of the most surprising things for me was to learn that not all companies will give you an expense account or a company credit card.

I have a network of assistants that I call friends, although some are just phone colleagues, but we help each other. If you know what works best for you and if your job is 80/20 on what you like then you can put up with the small stuff like filing and filling out expense forms. GET TO KNOW YOUR CO-WORKERS.

I travel far to try and find a full-serve station, but they are becoming extinct. It was expensive,but when I brought it home I had to do all the work to get it up and running. Now, there doesnt seem to be a difference in price at all, it is just common practice that we have to do it ourselves. Recently, I bought a new laptop.

He relied totally on spell check so you can imagine what typos were missed. He was a lawyer and in this particular letter he was writing to a prospective client. Good thing I checked. 411 Look Up 411.ca

Top EAs that work for a famous CEO (think Google, Fortune 100 companies) make as much as low level executives in middle management and have titles like Chief of Staff sometimes. This matters because it translates to how busy, stressful, how much experience you need them to have, and if you need a specialized Executive Assistant.

The last time I needed the phone number, I looked online. And he doesn’t show up on Google Maps. It just looks unprofessional for someone in their field… So overall, I agree–the first thing I do when hiring or looking at anyone for service is Google them and check their website. It’s too expensive.&#
