Today's Executive Assistants are business-savvy leaders and are not content to sit on the sidelines. They want in on the action. They want to know that what they are doing is a value-add to their Executive and to the business as a whole. Yet, too often, EAs are kept at a distance and left unfulfilled. Sound familiar? Entrepreneurs and Executive Assistants need each other to survive and thrive. Entrepreneurs need a Force Multiplier (aka Executive Assistant), a strategic partner who will bring order to the chaos and take on the miscellaneous 80 percent of their workload - and who will help them create the foundation that will allow them to build a life and business without limits. Executive Assistants need a Founder (aka an Entrepreneur), a visionary, a driven, growth-minded leader who will reignite their passion for their career, challenge them to think bigger, and allow them to use their project management and leadership skills, along with their business acumen, to help create the foundation that will allow them both to build a life and career without limits. If you are an Executive Assistant interested in learning how to build a dynamic and fulfilling career, or a leader looking to hire or establish a better relationship with your right hand, then this book is for you.

Founder Adam Hergenrother and his Chief of Staff, Hallie Warner, have worked side by side for over eight years. Adam brings the vision and Hallie follows through. They don't have it all figured out; they are far from perfect, and they've had their share of growing pains over the years.Throughout this book, they share what's worked for them, what they've learned along this journey, and some best practices that they recommend you implement immediately to get results. It is their hope that the lessons you learn here will help you find success and fulfillment in your business, your career, and your life as a whole. Without a doubt, together you will achieve more. Let's get started. "I have been at Amazon for 3.5 years, and I am proud to say that I have been hired as an A to an Executive here starting next Monday! This book has been so informative and helpful in preparing me for the role - I wish I had discovered it prior to my interview! Thankfully I landed the job, and I'm sure that I will continue to reference this book as I settle into my new role." - Kathleen Dawson, Executive Assistant, Amazon "If you are part of an executive/executive assistant relationship, this book will challenge you to consider the current value of that relationship and encourage you to raise the bar.
