An extraordinary personal manager dedicated to gaining proper places and honor for the women she chooses to work for, Eve accepts the offer of a secretary's job from Sara Gray, knowing that Gray needs a personal manager. Eve refuses to use Gray's first name because she is an executive and male executives are never addressed by first name. She announces that Gray should be promotion manager rather than an assistant and sets out to effect the change within the year. She discovers unused budgeted funds to remodel the dingy office into an attractive executive meeting room, to provide Gray a suitable executive wardrobe, and to arrange a make-over. From her own cubicle at the door Eve enforces a policy of meetings by appointment only and screens phone calls. Her filing system allows Gray instantly to access data.
