You’ve probably given some thought to the idea of having an executive assistant to get some tasks off your plate but wondered how to go about it or who to hire.
As an entrepreneur, it’s easy to find yourself overwhelmed by tasks that really don’t move the needle forward in your business in a meaningful way.
That’s where an executive assistant comes in.
They help you as a leader/CEO of your company to better manage your time and concentrate only on the tasks that need your attention. In short, they get things done.
In this episode, Rick sits down with his executive assistant, Chamberlynn Campuzano, to discuss the role of an EA and how to find a great one for your company.
As Chamberlynn observes, most entrepreneurs are squirrel brains who need someone to remind them where they buried their nuts.
But the trick is finding the right fit because, unlike other roles, you’ve got to find someone whose personality you like and whose energy matches yours. They also have to be emotionally resilient and tough.
Tune in to better understand the role of an EA and where to find one who is a right fit!
