There are many types of Virtual Assistant, but a Kaleidoscope Executive Virtual Assistant is unique. The main reason for that is that word, ‘executive’, which refers not just to the type of work we do, but the way we do it and the people we do it for.
A self-employed non-executive director or management consultant – our main clients – is working at a very high level, and usually dealing with executives in large corporate organisations. All of their clients have professional PAs running their diaries – and we believe our clients should have exactly the same service.

However, the principles behind that success apply in exactly the same way for working with smaller teams – partnering a successful micro-business with a Virtual Assistant.
In this blog for the Harvard Business Review, Keith Ferrazzi outlined the main principles behind successful virtual working. If properly applied, Ferrazzi says, virtual teams can even outperform traditional teams.
A key point Ferrazzi makes is that the working relationship needs to be effectively managed. When team members are not working in one another’s presence, the processes and communications they use need to be particularly robust. Once those processes are in place, increased efficiency and effectiveness follow.
Have you defined your Olympic gold yet?
Last week I challenged you to decide what you were striving for – to define what Olympic gold in your business would look like to you. Being determined to continue growing, attracting more clients and bigger contracts is all part of the plan for serious small businesses.
If that is the case, you are definitely in for a much, much busier working day. Did you ever wonder how you were going to handle that?
I’m adding my voice to the chorus of praise ringing loud for the achievements and efforts of Team GB.
This Olympics has truly been tremendous, and like many of you, it’s converted me overnight from indifference into being an avid sports fan.
As a businesswoman, I’m sure I’m not alone in finding the athletes’ commitment, energy and phenomenal effort extremely inspiring. Many of them have incredible talent, but that talent would go nowhere without the years of hard work they have put in.
It just goes to show what can be achieved when you set your sights on a goal and go for it, without allowing yourself to be stopped by any kind of doubt or setback.
If you’re an experienced PA looking for a flexible, challenging new opportunity, you could find it with Kaleidoscope.
We’re now recruiting self employed part-time executive Virtual Assistants to work alongside the established Kaleidoscope team. The business has been providing high level executive support to clients for several years now, and we’re growing the business and the team along with it.
Thanks to GTD, I can now cope with the flow of information coming into my business day after day. However, there was blockage that GTD hadn’t helped with – cracking my resistance to just getting through the work. All the task lists in the world were no match for my ability to stare out of the window, carry out endless internet ‘research’ or chase my tail round for hours because I just didn’t know where to start.
