Ep96: Agile Working for Executive Assistants

In Ep96 of The EA Campus Podcast, we explore Agile working and how it can be adapted for the EA role. This is not about adding more process or complexity. It is about creating a structure that allows you to stay flexible, make better decisions, and manage your workload with more clarity.

We break down what Agile working really means in practice and how you can start using it straight away in your role.

As Executive Assistants, we are used to working in environments where priorities shift quickly, plans change, and no two days look the same. One minute, everything is mapped out; the next, you are reworking the schedule, solving problems, and keeping everything moving behind the scenes.

So how do you build a way of working that actually supports that?
