O verwhelmed by despair and feeling like a shell of myself, I made a decision in August of 2021 that still haunts me. I swallowed a handful of pills, hoping to escape the pain and confusion.

How important is emotional intelligence for executive assistants and their employers? Very. When an executive assistant (EA) is emotionally intelligent, they can reliably “read the room”, handle sensitive information and make decisions in the executive’s best interests. This reliability helps form a deep trust, which makes the EA an indispensable partner.
