In the circumstance where you do not have a clue what to get you can use your 5 senses to come up with fresh ideas.
Does your assistant have a favorite color? What do they have on their desk? Do they wear jewelry? If they don't wear jewelry, maybe you can find something that would look good or a watch that would look good with almost anything a person wears.
Do they wear perfume or cologne? You could gift them with scented candles for their office area or to take home. Even air freshners for a car are a simple, yet unique idea.
Do they assistant have an iPod? What do kind of music do they listen to? Do they like to read or even hear motivational or self-improvement books? Books on audio can be a new idea as people listen to music or books almost anywhere they are.
A gift of an iPod or a subscription to an MP3 download service might be just what they need.
A certain type of person might like to decorate with fabrics, wear clothing with a lot of texture, have a stuffed animal collection, or appreciate artwork with depth and dimension. Depending on your budget this gives you a wide area to consider.
A theme gift basket can be lovely to look at with the addition of flowers, but can also contain cookbooks, food, picnic supplies for 2, glassware or dishes, cookware, wine, vinegars, herb, spices.
Finally does your assistant like chocolate? Do they love natural food or maybe even have a favorite restaurant. You can never go wrong with a gift certificate to a Starbucks these days either.
Maybe you don't think you know them well enough to choose a gift so here is another idea. Is there someone in the office that can help you with ideas. Maybe there is another person who knows them better than you do.
If you put in the time to come up with a thoughtful gift you probably can not do wrong. This article should have you thinking about all kinds of possibilities for choosing the right gift for your special assistant or secretary.
