I’m not trying to say that any of this applies in your case per se. But when someone in a leadership position hires a personal assistant, their goal may not necessarily be to increase their short term happiness, even if this is a side effect. The main benefit is to reduce load on their team. If there isn’t a clear owner for ops adjacent stuff, people in high-performance environments will randomly pick up ad-hoc tasks that need to get done, sometimes without clearly reporting this out to anyone, which is often societally inefficient relative to their skillset and a bad allocation of bandwidth given the organization’s priorities. A great personal assistant wouldn’t just help you get more done and focus on what matters, but also handle various things which may be spilling over to those who are paying attention to your needs and acting to ensure they are met without you noticing or explicitly delegating.
