Most executives say they want an EA who can be a true partner, but many of us have never learned how to work with an EA well. In this session, Sarah Stickney Murphy shares what she is learning as a CEO working with an EA: what executives keep in their heads, why delegation falls apart when the EA does not have enough context or authority, and how small changes from the executive can make the EA’s work much more valuable. Attendees will leave with practical language for showing leaders how clearer context, better delegation, and shared priorities aren’t just nice to have. They make the EA role more valuable to the executive, the team, and the organization.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand what executives keep in their heads and why context and authority are critical to partnership
- Learn how small changes from the executive can significantly increase the EA’s value and organizational impact
- Gain practical language for communicating with leaders about clearer context, delegation, and shared priorities
Who Should Attend: Executive Assistants and administrative professionals curious about the executive perspective on partnership. Ideal for those ready to bridge the gap between what leaders need and what EAs can provide, and who want concrete ways to advocate for how they work best.
