This involves the ability to quickly glean information from those demanding time from their boss.
Time management: Anyone managing another person’s time, as executive assistants often do for their bosses, also needs to be good at managing their own time.
Trustworthiness: Executive assistants often have access to sensitive information, and the executives they work for need to trust them fully in order for them to be as efficient as possible at their jobs.
Multitasking: Executive assistants are regularly handling more than one task at a time while keeping tabs on their bosses’ schedules and keeping them on track.
