What if the most powerful person in the room isn't the one with the biggest title, but the one everyone trusts to make things happen?
In The Boss's Boss: The Everything Guide for Executive Assistants, Jeanne D. Smith takes Executive Assistants beyond calendars, emails, meetings, and traditional administrative duties and into the world of strategic partnership, leadership, influence, and excellence.
The idea for The Boss's Boss was born after another successfully coordinated event when Jeanne's executive thanked her with two simple words: "Thank you, Boss."
Her response was immediate: "But I'm not the boss."
Or was she?
When people consistently come to you for answers, trust you to make decisions, depend on you to solve problems, and look to you when things don't go according to plan, something has changed. You are no longer simply assisting the leader, you have become a trusted extension of their leadership.
That's what it means to become The Boss's Boss.
Drawing from more than 20 years of experience supporting executive leadership, managing projects, coordinating events, developing systems, navigating technology, and leading behind the scenes, Jeanne shares practical strategies to help Executive Assistants elevate both their performance and their thinking.
Inside, you'll discover how to:
• Anticipate needs and think three steps ahead
• Protect your executive's time, energy, priorities, and reputation
• Make confident decisions without overstepping your authority
• Become your executive's trusted strategic partner
• Communicate professionally with executives, staff, stakeholders, family, and friends
• Create systems that bring order to chaos
• Manage projects, meetings, events, deadlines, and unexpected problems
• Lead and influence others—even when you don't have the title
• Build the trust that makes you the person everyone knows they can depend on
• Move from simply completing tasks to creating solutions
Whether you support a CEO, pastor, entrepreneur, nonprofit leader, ministry leader, or executive team, The Boss's Boss will challenge you to rethink what it means to be an Executive Assistant.
You aren't just the person behind the leader.
You are the strategist.
The organizer.
The problem solver.
The gatekeeper.
The connector.
The trusted partner who helps turn vision into reality.
It's time to stop thinking of yourself as just an assistant.
Lead without the title. Influence without the position. Become indispensable.
It's time to become The Boss's Boss.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
