Has your way of working? Experienced Executive Assistants are increasingly expected to do more than manage diaries, meetings and communication. They are becoming central to how information, actions and decisions move around senior leaders. Yet much of that work still depends on manual chasing, disconnected systems and the EA remembering what happens next. ◆ Actions lost across Outlook, Teams and meetings ◆ Repetitive manual follow-up ◆ Information spread across different locations ◆ AI available without a clear workflow strategy Design the workflow first. Choose the technology second. EAPA teaches you how to improve the way work moves before deciding whether Microsoft 365, Copilot, AI or automation should support it. What will you be able to do differently? ◆ Build clearer, more reliable executive support workflows ◆ Reduce repetitive administration and manual chasing ◆ Improve actions, ownership and follow through ◆ Use Copilot and AI with stronger professional judgement ◆ Identify processes that should be automated ◆ Connect Microsoft 365 tools into better ways of working ◆ Demonstrate measurable workplace improvement You do not just attend. You implement. Productivity Architecture Project Improve a real workflow from your own role During EAPA you choose a genuine workplace problem and apply the programme to redesign it.
