Chiefs of Staff: Life with the World's Most Powerful
Chiefs of staff from around the world have shared their experiences of working with the most powerful people in politics.
They are often the second-most powerful individuals in the rooms where major decisions are made, yet remain largely unknown to the general public.
The (chief of staff) role has this professional intimacy, it's such a unique role and the biggest takeaway was that at the end of the day it does come back to friendship.
According to Phoebe Saintilan-Stocks, author of The Right Hand, the role of a chief of staff comes down to trust, loyalty, and friendship with their boss.
Eight chiefs of staff have contributed to the book, offering a glimpse into their experiences of supporting and challenging the world's most powerful leaders.
Saintilan-Stocks notes that chiefs of staff tend to avoid the media, preferring to stay out of the news.
