Why Should You Attend
In most organizations today, Executive Assistants are asked to improve your productivity and effectiveness. At the same time, you are seldom provided with the training, tools or resources to do this. This adds to the normal stress associated with your position. The pandemic has upended many situations whether you are working in your usual location or remotely or using a combination of the two.

Topic Background
