The Daily Triage Pass Through Inbox and Calendar
Executive time rarely disappears into big projects. It leaks out through a few hundred small decisions a week about which message matters, who needs an answer today, and whether Thursday afternoon can absorb one more call. Your assistant makes that first pass instead.
Routine messages get answered from standing rules agreed with you, anything needing your judgment arrives flagged with the background attached, and the rest is filed. Over a few weeks those rules sharpen, because the same person is learning where your line sits.
