‘How to be a PA’ is the only book available for PA’s as a ‘how to’ guide. It’s the book which equips readers with the skills and knowledge to do their job well.

“I identified a huge gap in the market. Many books are available which focus on ‘soft skills’ but nothing was available with the skills you actually need to do the job – the ‘practical skills’. It was that discovery which led me to write my book. It’s the book I wished I could have purchased, when I first started out as a PA.” Maria Fuller, Author.
How to be a PA is now available on Amazon Europe, priced at £17.99.
