Capture decisions, owners, effective dates, dependencies, and the first

Capture decisions, owners, effective dates, dependencies, and the first visible action before the group disperses. Discussion alone is not an operating change.

Route each action to the person who can make

Route each action to the person who can make it real and flag decisions that need wider communication. Support coordinates the sequence without owning the leaders' strategy.

Schedule a short review after implementation begins

Schedule a short review after implementation begins. Close completed actions and record where the decision needed clarification or a changed owner.

Frequently asked questions

Should one assistant support the whole executive team?

Sometimes. It works when priorities are clear and executives share one operating rhythm.

What should happen before a consult?

List the meetings, inbox rules, recurring reports, and decisions that need support.

Ready to define the role?

Use a recent leadership week to scope the support that would make the biggest difference. The consultation is a working conversation, not a generic pitch.
