Choosing executive support
Begin with the work.
Then choose the model.
A useful support decision starts with your operating requirements. Write those down before comparing a dedicated assistant, shared support or an internal coordination role.
Make the same brief
work for every conversation.
Use a typical week and a few real handoffs. Avoid sharing confidential information while you evaluate fit.
Explore our service scope ↗- Coverage and availability
- Clarify which time zones, recurring meetings and response windows the work requires. Ask how changes are communicated.
- Access and judgment
- Separate coordination from approval. Document who can view information, prepare drafts, move commitments and make final decisions.
- Continuity and review
- Ask how instructions are recorded, how absence is handled and how recurring mistakes become process improvements.
- Evidence of fit
- Request a walkthrough of a relevant workflow. Look for clear inputs, outputs and escalation rules rather than broad promises.

Bring the work.
We’ll map the support.
A calendar that keeps moving. An inbox with too many owners. A project waiting on follow-up. Start with the part of your week that needs attention.
