Executive Assistant Productivity Architect Programme

Redesign how work flows around senior finance leadership

A tailored version of the programme for experienced assistants supporting senior finance leaders, where inbox volume, meetings, actions, decisions and stakeholder communication all need more structure, visibility and control.

Ashley, I thought this version would be more useful than the general programme page because it focuses on senior assistants supporting finance leaders, where control, confidentiality, stakeholder follow through and better systems really matter.

This is a private tailored page, created to show how the programme applies to senior finance support rather than to present the full general course page.

This version has been focused on senior assistants supporting finance leaders, because that is where the Productivity Architect approach is especially relevant: high volume, confidential work, complex stakeholders, constant follow through and the need for better systems behind the role.

Productivity at this level is not about doing more

When you support a senior finance leader, the real value is not simply clearing tasks faster. It is creating a better operating rhythm around the executive office.

That means clearer priorities, stronger follow through, better meeting outputs, fewer duplicated actions and a more controlled way of using Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI in daily work.

From reactive support to workflow architect

This programme is for experienced assistants who are ready to move beyond managing the flow and start designing how work gets done.

5 weeks

Live online, implementation focused and built around real executive support work.

Why capable assistants still feel stretched

The problem is rarely ability. The problem is that the work is often spread across too many places, with too much manual coordination sitting inside the assistant role.

Inbox pressure

Important requests, follow ups and decisions buried inside fast moving email threads.

Meeting load

Actions, ownership and next steps needing to be captured, clarified and chased manually.

Stakeholder noise

Multiple people needing updates, answers and movement without a single clear view.

Tool overload

Microsoft 365, Teams, documents and AI being used separately rather than as one working system.

What changes when the workflow is designed properly

1

More control

Create clearer structures for inbox, diary, meetings, tasks and follow up.

2

Less manual work

Use Microsoft 365, Copilot and automation to reduce repeated admin and duplication.

3

Better visibility

Make actions, decisions, ownership and communication easier to track.

4

Stronger support

Operate with more strategic value, better judgement and clearer executive outputs.

What you will build during the programme

This is not generic AI training. It is practical workflow redesign for assistant work. You leave with systems you can apply immediately.

  • A clearer inbox and prioritisation flow
  • A meeting action and follow up system
  • A better structure for tasks, decisions and ownership
  • More confident use of Copilot and AI for real work
  • Executive ready outputs created more efficiently
  • Automation opportunities that remove repeated manual effort
  • Improved stakeholder communication and visibility
  • A more strategic operating model for the assistant role

Most AI training teaches prompts. This programme teaches experienced assistants how to redesign the way work actually moves.

Programme format

  • Five week online programme
  • Ten live half day sessions
  • Small cohort for support and accountability
  • Practical implementation between sessions
  • Built for experienced assistants, not passive learners
  • Standard price £2,995

Firstly, we signed up with Paul as we have trained with him before and truly benefit from his targeted and relevant training for us as assistants. Secondly, we had no idea about AI/Chat GPT, and I mean absolutely no idea.  We were mind blown within about 5 minutes of this course started (but in a really good way), and stayed totally engaged for the entire duration of the training – there is so much to learn, but Paul helped guide us through what would be useful for us to build into our working lives, and give us a good grounding in what is, and will be, a phenomenally fast growing area.  Everyone needs to learn this stuff.
This Minute-Taking Course is an absolute game-changer for EAs. Paul was knowledgeable and engaging, demonstrating the very latest technological insights, and showing us how to use AI to streamline transcription, summarization, and organization to save time and create first class work products. The excellent materials and personalized feedback made this a truly transformative learning experience. Highly recommend!
Paul Pennant's AI online course was truly eye-opening! It revealed a wealth of knowledge that had me so engaged, I was up till 4am reflecting on everything I had learned. As an Office Manager and Events Coordinator for a large property company, I can already envision numerous occassions where AI will simplify aspects of my role - streamlining tasks, improving efficiency, and allowing me to focus on expanding in other areas. The content was insightful, practical, and expertly delivered - I feel empowered and excited to apply these new AI skills. Highly recommend🚀
