Administrative professionals play a pivotal role in the modern workplace. Developing strategic partnerships with leaders is a critical way in which admins build influence and expand their value. However, many struggle to create powerful partnerships and, consequently, experience a host of challenges—misaligned expectations, frequent miscommunication, and lack of connection time to name a few. This greatly reduces the impact of both the admin and the leader and creates feelings of dissatisfaction and frustration on both sides.
Because the partnership between leader and assistant is a deeper, more complex business relationship than most, it requires a thoughtful, intentional approach. Usually, the admin is the one who needs to take ownership of this process. This program will empower you with the skills and knowledge you need to create the kind of partnership that unlocks the true potential of both you and your leader.
In this Learning Lab, you will…
Assess your current partnership, develop a vision for the future, and explore strategies to get from here to there
Discover a proven step-by-step framework for building and enhancing collaborative relationships between leaders and assistants

Participant Praise
“I was a bit worried that I was going to have a hard time staying focused and engaged for a full day of online training. The format made it impossible to get bored or too distracted! I loved how engaging the training was. I learned a lot from Chrissy and from the other participants. I know I will be using the templates and concepts at work.”
Anais Bardin-Chandler
“Chrissy has a great formula that invites participation from the attendees while she provides all of the information and knowledge we need to fully understand the topic she is presenting. It is a long day, but she breaks it up just right so that we don’t get too antsy sitting at our desk all day. I always know that I get my money’s worth when I sign up for one of Chrissy’s Learning Labs.”
Celestine S.
“I did not know what to expect from the course, but having attended numerous free online trainings from Chrissy, I knew it would be 100% worth the time. It was that and more! Thank you, Chrissy for the excellent content and delivery.”
