They are a leadership multiplier β thinking ahead, filtering, prioritising, anticipating, and freeing up their leader to focus on what truly matters. π―
In my conversation with Tobias Marti fromΒ NZZ,Β I was able to say openly what many think but rarely express:
It deserves more visibility, respect, transparency, appreciation, and support. π
I spoke about leaders who inspire β and about those who forget that their assistant is not only a sparring partner but also a human being with boundaries.
I talked about how demanding, diverse, and mentally challenging this role is β and why true success is no coincidence, but the result of both sides working together.
I spoke about red flags, about loyalty, about respect.
And about the strength of those personalities who navigate daily between boardrooms, emotions, and escalation.
