4 Signs You Need An Executive Assistant
1. You spend too much time coordinating, rescheduling, and following up
If meeting logistics are creeping into your evenings or breaking your focus during the day, that’s work better handled by an EA.
2. You’re the bottleneck for making meetings happen
People are waiting on you to confirm times, chase replies, or move things forward. Nothing is technically “on fire,” but everything is slower than it should be.
3. Your calendar fills reactively, not intentionally
Meetings land wherever there’s space, not where they make sense. Focus time gets sacrificed first. Strategy comes last.
4. You’re already operating like you have an EA — just badly
You draft “polite follow-ups,” negotiate time zones, remember preferences, and resend details — all manually. That’s EA work. It’s just living in your inbox instead of being delegated
This Is Where the Delegation Should Happen
If these signs feel familiar, you’re not “bad at time management.”
You’re doing executive assistant work by hand.
That usually means one of two paths:
- Hire a full-time EA
