Ashley, I thought this version would be more useful than the general programme page because it focuses on senior assistants supporting finance leaders, where control, confidentiality, stakeholder follow through and better systems really matter. This is a private tailored page, created to show how the programme applies to senior finance support rather than to present the full general course page. Secure your EAPA place View programme details This version has been focused on senior assistants supporting finance leaders, because that is where the Productivity Architect approach is especially relevant: high volume, confidential work, complex stakeholders, constant follow through and the need for better systems behind the role. Productivity at this level is not about doing more When you support a senior finance leader, the real value is not simply clearing tasks faster. It is creating a better operating rhythm around the executive office. That means clearer priorities, stronger follow through, better meeting outputs, fewer duplicated actions and a more controlled way of using Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI in daily work. From reactive support to workflow architect This programme is for experienced assistants who are ready to move beyond managing the flow and start designing how work gets done. 5 weeks Live online, implementation focused and built around real executive support work. Why capable assistants still feel stretched The problem is rarely ability. The problem is that the work is often spread across too many places, with too much manual coordination sitting inside the assistant role. Inbox pressure Important requests, follow ups and decisions buried inside fast moving email threads. Meeting load Actions, ownership and next steps needing to be captured, clarified and chased manually. Stakeholder noise Multiple people needing updates, answers and movement without a single clear view. Tool overload Microsoft 365, Teams, documents and AI being used separately rather than as one working system. What changes when the workflow is designed properly 1 More control Create clearer structures for inbox, diary, meetings, tasks and follow up. 2 Less manual work Use Microsoft 365, Copilot and automation to reduce repeated admin and duplication. 3 Better visibility Make actions, decisions, ownership and communication easier to track. 4 Stronger support Operate with more strategic value, better judgement and clearer executive outputs. What you will build during the programme This is not generic AI training. It is practical workflow redesign for assistant work. You leave with systems you can apply immediately. A clearer inbox and prioritisation flow A meeting action and follow up system A better structure for tasks, decisions and ownership More confident use of Copilot and AI for real work Executive ready outputs created more efficiently Automation opportunities that remove repeated manual effort Improved stakeholder communication and visibility A more strategic operating model for the assistant role Most AI training teaches prompts. This programme teaches experienced assistants how to redesign the way work actually moves.
