The Strategic 1:1

Sep 16 2026

10:15 AM - 11:30 AM CDT

*REPEAT SESSION

If your Executive-EA 1:1 is a status update, you’re wasting one of the most powerful levers in executive operations.

The 1:1 is not a check-in. It’s an operating cadence – a control point where priorities get sharpened, decisions surface early, risks are caught before they explode, and execution stays aligned.

In this session, we’ll break down how high-performing Executive Assistants design and govern the 1:1 as a strategic operating rhythm. You’ll learn how to move beyond updates and into real partnership: framing decisions, pressure-testing priorities, and preparing your executive for what’s coming before it shows up as chaos. This is about elevating your 1:1 to focus on driving business outcomes. It’s about using the 1:1 to govern how the work moves forward.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why most 1:1s fail to create real alignment
  • How to shift from updates to decision support
  • What creates clarity between an executive and their partner
  • A practical way to structure a high-impact 1:1
     

Who Should Attend: Executive Assistants who want to transform their 1:1 from a status update into a strategic operating rhythm. Ideal for those ready to move beyond check-ins and into real partnership framing decisions, pressure-testing priorities, catching risks early, and preparing their executive for what’s coming before it shows up as chaos.
