What are the 4 Types of Executive Assistants…and which works best for you?
Chemistry. It’s what creates the most productive and effective relationships between Executives and their Executive Assistants, and at Worxbee, we’ve got it down to a science. We’ve identified four unique Executive Assistant archetypes and use these personas to forge long-lasting matches between busy leaders and superstar assistants—it’s all part of our proven, pre-vetted pairing process.
1. The Inventor
The Inventor type is the one that’s free-minded and creative. They seek outside-the-box solutions for problems that seem to have a dead end. They look at “problems” as opportunities for success. They don’t take “no” for an answer. They’ll consider all ideas until every avenue is explored. Inventors enjoy the challenge of finding a solution to a complex problem.
2. The Champion
The Champion type can handle high-stress situations with confidence and grace. They’re skilled at navigating the many pieces of large-scale initiatives and can coordinate projects with tact. They’re attuned to the needs of clients and understand their feelings. In fact, they’re talented in both understanding what’s important to the client and finding ways to facilitate that—so both parties are happy.
3. The Mastermind
The Mastermind type has in-depth knowledge of their chosen field of work. Their knowledge may not be topically broad, but it’s robust in a few specific areas. They think deeply about subjects to discover solutions. A common character trait of these people is silence. Being an introvert is a strength because it gives them time to think. Masterminds will be content with picking up those "deep thinking" tasks and finding solutions to complex scenarios.
4. The Professor
The Professor type combs finely through the details, facts, and figures for consistency or errors. They take satisfaction in being dependable and in finding mistakes. Lovingly labeled as a “Type A” person, the Professor type can be counted on when an enormous task needs to be thought out. They brainstorm the details of what it takes to get a large project to completion.
