On stage & in conversation

A new way to think.
A practical place to start.

For EA communities, conferences and teams curious about what comes next — and what to do with it.

01 / THE POSSIBILITIES

AI belongs in the
EA toolkit.

From first experiments to everyday support: a grounded look at using AI in the executive office, while keeping human judgement at the centre.

Less mystique. More possibility.
02 / THE PRACTICE

Prompting
is briefing.

You already know how to give context, set expectations and review the result. Discover how those familiar skills translate into working with AI.

A familiar skill. A new application.
03 / THE EVOLUTION

From doing more
to working smarter.

Rethink recurring work, create clearer rhythms and explore an EA operating system that gives you more room for the work that matters.

Better systems. Greater capacity.
A little about me

An EA by experience.
Curious by nature.

“I didn’t learn to code.
I learned to brief with precision.”

I’m Trudy — an Executive Assistant, speaker and the founder of EAOpSys.

My experience in executive offices has shaped how I think about work: the moving parts, the invisible effort, and the difference a thoughtful system can make.

My approach to AI began with curiosity. It grew through trying things, getting things wrong, and turning useful experiments into practical support for senior leaders.

That’s the perspective I bring to the room. Honest experience, clear language, and ideas that feel within reach.

AI, with the human still in charge.

Practical support for your judgement, relationships and expertise.

03

A next step that feels doable.

Start with one recurring task. Brief it clearly. Review it thoughtfully.
