Delegating to AI: What Every EA Should Know
In this article, we will explore five tasks you should already be delegating to AI in practical, everyday terms, the kind of tasks that come up in your week again and again.
In this article, we will explore what hiring managers are really looking for in Executive Assistants in 2026 and how we can ensure our capabilities are visible, measurable, and hard to overlook.
In this article, we will explore how to create SOPs that actually save you time as an Executive Assistant, focusing on practical ways to document how you work so they support you day-to-day.
Ep92: How AI Is Changing Inbox Management for Executive Assistants
AI is no longer a novelty inside our inboxes. It drafts replies, summarizes threads, groups themes, and predicts responses. In this episode, we break down exactly how AI is changing inbox management for Executive Assistants, what it can realistically handle today, and where we still need to stay firmly in control.
Ep91: The Conversations That Make Your Job Easier (But Feel Awkward to Start)
In this episode, Nicky walks through six conversations that directly impact how smooth, strategic, and sustainable your role feels. From asking for help early, to addressing small behaviours before they become patterns, to negotiating scope and salary with confidence, this is a practical, real-world guide for EAs who want to stop guessing and start shaping how they work.
In The EA Campus Podcast Ep90, we sit down with Alicia and Yvette, the creators of the EA Salary Survey, to explore how the report came to life and why having a large, representative dataset really matters.
If you’re an EA juggling competing demands, long hours, and a diary that never seems to slow down, this conversation will resonate. Drawing on 21 years of corporate experience, including roles in management consulting and business analysis with global organisations, Detola now works as a consultant, women’s leadership coach, and lead productivity coach. She supports professionals to live productive and purposeful lives, even in busy seasons.

Wednesday 25th February No: 56 This Is How You Prep Like an AI Savvy EA If The Email Is 28 Replies Long, It Needs a Summary We've thinking about inbox triage this week after reviewing yet another 32-reply thread that started with a simple question and ended somewhere completely different. If you’re supporting at a senior level, you know this to be true. Someone asks for an update. Five people reply-all. Two attach new versions. One says “circling back.” By the time it reaches your Executive,...

Wednesday 18th February No: 55 Are You Listing Tasks or Proving Value? Because Your Role Is Bigger Than Your Task List As EAs, we are used to explaining what we do. We manage diaries. We protect time. We handle inboxes. We support senior leaders. All of that is true, and all of it matters. What is shifting in 2026 is how that information is assessed. Listing responsibilities gives context. It does not prove capability. Hiring managers and Executives are listening for something more specific....
