Why It's Important?
The event underscores the evolving role of executive assistants in corporate settings, particularly in travel and event planning. By positioning EAs as strategic partners, companies can leverage their expertise to enhance workplace culture and employee engagement. This approach not only aids in talent retention but also fosters leadership development. The focus on curated travel experiences reflects a growing trend in using travel as a tool for corporate growth and team building, offering potential benefits in terms of creativity and innovation.
What's Next?
Companies may increasingly support executive assistants in becoming strategic partners for leadership retreats and off-site planning. This could involve providing more resources and training to EAs, enabling them to influence workplace culture through travel. As businesses recognize the value of curated travel experiences, there may be a shift towards integrating these into regular corporate practices, potentially leading to more frequent and diverse travel opportunities for teams.
