“Thank you for giving me words to better describe what I truly do and the impact of my work. The book is helpful for assistants and their bosses in highlighting the benefits of finding the right match and how taking the time to develop a relationship built on trust is incredibly valuable.  The relationship between an executive and their assistant can be a bit mystifying when seen from the outside, but it can be incredibly rewarding if you find the right person to work with”.
