Boots-on-the-Ground vs. Wings-in-the-Cloud: Rethinking Roles for Maximum Efficiency

When thinking about support roles, leaders often lean towards a ‘boots-on-the-ground’ approach, believing that physical presence is essential.

Remote Executive Assistants (EAs) handle administrative and strategic duties, freeing up your on-site team to focus on operations. This division of labor boosts productivity, flexibility, and scalability while saving on costs. It’s time to rethink roles—embrace the wings-in-the-cloud approach and watch your business soar.

How Invisibility Kills Your EA’s Perceived Value

The Invisible Value of Your Executive Assistant

Over time, the value your Executive Assistant (EA) brings can become almost invisible. When you first start working together, you feel the immediate relief of having tasks handled.
