Ruth MeadJewel in the LEADER's CROWN: Powerful Strategies to Shine as an Executive Assistant & Beyond

Oh my - what a great book! It arrived on Monday, but couldn't look at it until the following night....and then proceeded to read the 1st 10 chapters by 2am in the morning. Then decided I could justify reading it in work while waiting for reports to run on my PC (tbh - it's one of those books I couldn't put down once I'd starting reading it). Congratulations Ruth - a fantastic book and an invaluable resource, not only to aspiring & existing PAs & EAs, but also to the CEOs themselves. I just wish this book had been around 20 years ago, it might have saved me a few embarrassing and stressful moments. I certainly believe it should be on the reading lists of all secretarial/administrative courses. If you're going to be giving any speeches in the UK, please let me know as I would certainly love to come and listen to you. Good luck with your book and in promoting the work that we do.

Fabulous read - whatever your profession or position, the advice, tips, secrets and anecdotes shared are relevant to anyone aspiring to be the best they can be! Fantastic strategies in a well written, uplifting, motivational book that will inspire you to change the way you manage your thoughts, work, leisure time and personal life. Essential reading for not just aspiring EA's ........ but absolutely anyone looking to achieve exceptional organisation, balance, success and joy - professionally and personally.

What a fabulous book!!! Motivational, inspiring and a MUST READ for any PA/EA. Ruth......finally someone gets me! Thanks for leading me back to where I know I need and want to go. I had forgotten how excited I used to be about my career and you've helped show me the way forward!

Even after thirty years as an EA and PA, we still need encouragement and inspiration to keep giving our best. This book does that and more. Highly recommend if you need some inspiration and motivation to keep doing what you do but with added sparkle!
