Welcome to another issue of Executive PA magazine , and what an issue it is !
You will have noticed the slightly different-from-usual front cover , and we ’ re delighted to present our in-depth article Good Boss , Bad Boss to you .
This six-page feature isn ’ t just a deep dive into the story of Madeleine Westerhout , President Donald Trump ’ s ex-EA . It ’ s also an opportunity for you to consider what type of boss you have – and whether you might be working for a ‘ bad boss ’. For this , Naomi Spinks , EA at AECOM , has grilled workplace guru , author and regular Executive PA writer Michelle Gibbings . It ’ s a must-read !
Talking of our professional development writers , this issue is packed with information and insight you can apply to your work and personal life .
Workplace psychologist Dr Lynda Folan suggests how EAs from other generations can bridge the gap with new recruits from Gen Z whilst Donna McGeorge talks habits – breaking the bad ones and introducing healthier ones . Plus Steuart Snooks is back to tell you about the importance of ‘ the first touch ’ when it comes to e-mail management – and soccer .
