A One-Day Program for Executive’s & Their EAs

The relationship between EA and Executive is one of the most profound yet critical in modern businesses. But too often the development of these relationships is left to evolve organically over time, with little defined planning or articulation of purpose or process.

This course is designed to help remove the lottery of chance, and to accelerate the development of a trusted Partnership, enabling EA and Executive to be confident that it has the right foundations and structure to ensure alignment in all critical communication, task, responsibility and reporting areas, and guarantee a more productive and effective working relationship.

Delivered over one day, the course utilises a process of self-discovery in addition to benchmarking against industry standards. The process is also underpinned by a number of EAN models and frameworks developed over the past decade with our members.
