The Recognition Gap
It’s Not Just You
You see the whole chessboard while others focus on single moves. You solve problems before most people even notice them. You influence outcomes behind the scenes every single day.
Yet somehow, your strategic contributions remain in the shadows.
It’s the unspoken reality of being an EA. The gap between what you actually deliver and how it’s recognised isn’t just frustrating, it’s a structural reality that limits your influence, compensation, and career trajectory.
But here’s what we’ve discovered after working with over 1,200 Executive Assistants: This isn’t about your capabilities. It’s about how those capabilities are positioned, communicated, and perceived.
Who are the EA Institute?
The Growth Journey
Our Executive Assistant Training programs help you get recognised for your strategic value without changing who you are. Your development pathway is built around your unique strengths, challenges and comfort zone, not a one-size-fits-all model. Whether you’re a behind-the-scenes operator or thrive in the spotlight, we tailor support to suit you. This isn’t about forcing you into a box. It’s about helping you grow in a way that feels natural, builds confidence and leads to real impact.
The EA Growth Model
Where your strategic impact gets noticed, your way
We transform how Executive Assistants’ strategic contributions are recognized without forcing them to become someone they’re not.
EA Technician + Silver Membership
Level One
Transform your operational expertise into strategic currency without abandoning what makes you excellent. For EAs who already deliver strategic value but find themselves trapped by task excellence. From execution expert to recognised strategic contributor without the chaos.
EA Manager + Gold Membership
Level Two
Your strategic influence doesn’t require a spotlight, just the right positioning. Whether you prefer behind-the-scenes influence or more direct engagement, master the art of strategic visibility on your terms. Strategic impact without the spotlight stress. Get noticed for your insights, not just your coordination.
EA Leader + Platinum Membership
Level Three
Close the gap between your strategic reality and how you’re perceived. For EAs already functioning as strategic partners but introduced as ‘just the assistant.’ Align your contributions with the recognition and compensation you deserve. You’re already the strategic partner they need. We make sure everyone knows it.

Testimonials
What Our Clients Say
A culmination of events had upended my life personally and professionally, leaving me disheartened and disorientated.Jacqueline's holistic coaching sessions laid the foundations for my personal journey of true transformation. She is an intuitive, empathetic teacher and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking assistance with their own personal journey.
Amanda’s passion for transferring her knowledge and supportive follow-up mentoring, led me towards embracing greater responsibilities within the organisation. From participating in one of her training sessions, I now feel empowered to take on a greater level of leadership within our business and support our director in a new way.Thank you, Amanda, for your patience and expertise in guiding me though the learning process.
Thanks very much again for this training. It was exactly what I needed. I am very much a systems person and have been struggling over the last year and a half or so to figure out something that captured absolutely everything and had a super simple, adaptable workflow (honestly, the number of apps I’ve run through trying to make something work is a little bit terrifying). I took to your framework like a fish to water, and having exactly what I knew I needed laid out for me was such a help. Next step—personalize.I appreciated the emphasis on the mindset shift as I am definitely guilty of stressing over the length of to-do lists and trying to get it done. It’s so relieving to know that everything’s noted and will be taken care of in due time.
This training has been so valuable for me. Going through a rough time at work, with lots of change, this program has helped ground me and realign my focus to what’s important. It’s been really insightful and very good to learn about the psychology and science behind what makes us tick. I would highly recommend this training, you can do it in your own time and revisit whenever you’re having a tough day or week.
Before I started this training, having done a huge amount of learning and development, I had some idea of what mindfulness was, however this has given me a far greater understanding and helped me greatly in my role as Executive Assistant. The session on judgement had a big impact, and every time I do the training another light bulb goes off. If you are on the fence about doing this training, I would say go for it. There are so many resources included, and it will help just as much in your personal life as it does for work.
The EA Institutes leadership training program provided me with an all round overview on how to lead and the methodologies used were at a very high standard. I have accomplished so much and as a result so many opportunities have opened up for me at KPMG
I highly recommend the The High Performing EA course. I was continually pushed out of my comfort zone and I am now reaping the rewards not only in my work life but it also translates through to your personal life
The EA Institute changed my life! Seriously! I could not dream up a more inspiring, challenging and encouraging six months of growth that I experienced through ‘The High Performing EA
