Episode 21

21 Are You Ready for an Exceptional EA?

As a woman in leadership, how many of the executive assistants have you hired that brought more to the table than you initially expected? Did they possess a natural ability to see things that you could not see, either because you were too focused on more strategic responsibilities or too busy making up for the lack of talent of prior EAs? How many of your EAs were willing to tell you no, or push back when an idea you had was not efficient, if it was duplicitous, or not leading you or your company in a direction you stated you wanted to go?

If you answered ‘not one’, well, that stops today.

Inside this episode, I will save you time, money and frustration by sharing the number one thing that you need to have before you consider hiring, or firing your next executive assistant. You want to make sure that you are hiring the right person for the job versus hiring quickly and then having to fire and start the hiring process all over again, right? I know you do.

So keep listening, and let's see if you are honestly ready to hire an exceptional executive assistant or if you still have some personal work to do. Don't forget to head on over to the show notes page on my website, AnitaCharlot.com/Podcast to download a copy of this episode.
