I recommend highly Jeremy Burrows' book, The Leader Assistant. Jeremy gives thorough advice in how to make tasks more efficient and ways to organize so it boosts your executive's business. In addition to sharing plenty of business advice so assistants know that they have a tremendous impact on their executive's business success, Jeremy gives important advice to assistants about how personal time is as important as work and that in addition to rest, finding a hobby that you love doing can build your creativity, patience, intellectual and physical skills as well as spiritual and emotional connections.
