Leave your legacy

Chiefs of Staff & Executive Assistants, building an Office of the CEO is the 99% guaranteed way to leave your legacy for years after you’re gone.

After you’ve left, there will be a proper Executive Operations function left standing. There will be a high-functioning team with well-documented processes and procedures. And there will be the right relationships and tech tools in place that work seamlessly all in service of your CEO.

This lets your successor Chief of Staff or an incoming Executive Assistant pick up the reins and go with minimal disruption.

Ultimately, you will continue to deliver an impact to your boss long after you have left. You will feel proud of the work that you’ve done and can reference it at any point in your future career.

So how do you do it?

It takes a big investment in time and energy, but the payoff will be worth it to you, your CEO and your team. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. Watch this space as I continue to write regularly on building your very own Office of the CEO.

I’ll share best practices from the 30+ interviews I’ve had with professionals who have set up their very own CEO Office. And if you have a burning question that needs to be answered…

Join me in my upcoming Office of the CEO AMA next Wednesday, January 31, 2024 at 11am ET / 8am PT / 4p GMT.
