ABOUT YOUR MASTERCLASS
This is a day packed full of Executive Assistant essential skills – identify your leadership style and learn how to capitalise on your strengths, develop your relationship building skills, master thinking skills in the age of AI, shape your workplace presence for greater impact and influence and build strategies to better manage your work life balance to enable you to perform at your best.
