Throughout my life, I have always wanted to have a positive impact on the lives of those around me. I desire to do that as a husband, as a father of five, as a foster parent, as a leader, as a social entrepreneur in Africa, and now as a writer and entrepreneur advocating for the Executive and Executive Assistant partnership.

In 2016, I felt like I had no time. My schedule was full, yet things weren’t getting done. I began missing family activities, my leadership team wasn’t getting what they needed from me, and hopelessness began to set in as I knew I was falling short of the person I wanted to be.

That was when I hired my first executive assistant. With the help of my EA, I became a better leader, a better father, a better husband, and a better friend. I saw my company become better during that time as well. It’s been six years since I hired my first executive assistant, and I can truly say that it was the most important hire I’ve ever made.

I am passionate about helping other leaders who feel the same frustrations I did. I want to see them become the people they want to be. I want to see them maximize their strategic partnership with their assistant in a way that positively impacts their lives and the lives of those around them.  

Writing:

Because of this passion, I began writing a blog at Emmre.com/blog for assistants and this blog, 1job2people.com for executives. Even though each blog has a specific audience, my hope is that reading both as an executive or executive assistant will provide value. 

Both blogs are written to help maximize the effectiveness of the strategic partnership between executives and executive assistants.
