*REPEAT SESSION
AI agents aren’t chatbots; they don’t wait to be asked. They’re capable of working proactively for you: browsing, drafting, deciding, acting – and they’re rapidly changing the nature of the EA role.
This session is a clear-eyed look at where agentic AI is right now, what it means for the EA role, and how to start positioning yourself ahead of it.
We’ll explore what agents can actually do today (no hype), walk through real EA workflows where tools like Claude Cowork and Copilot Cowork are already changing the game, and examine agent concepts in teams. We’ll look at examples like fully automated meeting prep where the EA is removed from the loop entirely, not because they’ve been replaced, but because they built the system.
For those who don’t yet have access to agentic platforms, don’t wait for your organization to catch up. This session will give you the conceptual foundations, a practical roadmap, and a clear case for why experimenting now (even on your own device, with strictly personal data) puts you ahead of the curve when access arrives. This is the session for EAs who want to understand what’s coming and be the first in their organizations to make it work.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand what AI agents can actually do today – and how they differ from AI chatbots
- See real EA workflows where agentic tools are already changing the game
- Learn how to map your workflows, build instruction manuals and call on data inputs to make agents run well
- Explore and understand key use cases (tasks and whole projects) where agents are best placed to work proactively on your behalf – browsing, drafting, deciding, and acting
- Walk away with the conceptual foundations and a practical roadmap to start experimenting now – even before your organization catches up
Who Should Attend: Executive Assistants who want to understand what’s coming in agentic AI and be the first in their organization to make it work – whether or not they currently have access to agentic platforms.
