“Chrissy brought clarity and focus to a lot of the things about being an EA that I’ve experienced over many years, things I may have known about in a nebulous way but never really put into a solid thought. And the fact that She’s been there and knows the in’s and out’s of the job makes her uniquely qualified…She’s given me a boost of confidence!”

Hot tip: The single most important thing you can do to set yourself up for success from the very beginning of a project is to ask the right questions. New PMs often get in trouble because they make assumptions and don’t dig deep to better understand their goals and parameters.
