A lot of people try to get information out of executive assistants so they can be better able to impress the boss. A good answer could be something like this: “I would see my job as helping you do your job. So, first, I'd find out how you wanted me to handle it. If you wanted me to stay out of it, then I'd politely tell people they'd have to talk to you. If you wanted me to work behind the scenes, I could release information that would help steer things the way you wanted them to go.”
