An assistant is a person that helps another person accomplish his goals. Assistants may be provided by one's employer to assist with work-related tasks. The wealthy or those with freelance businesses may hire personal assistants. There are also task-specific assistants available, such as those that help organize the home. In cases where the assistant is closely identified with the person they serve, the assistant may be known as a right-hand man or yes-man.
