ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Fifty years. One philosophy: one plus one equals three.
Doug Conant has built his entire leadership career on the belief that administrative professionals aren't support staff; they're your most valuable partners. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Doug gets candid with Diana and Mel about what it actually looks like when a leader genuinely values their admin. Not as a resource. As a partner.
From the chaos of Diana's first week to the story of a former EA who put Doug's sneakers by the door before he ever agreed to wear them, this conversation is honest, warm, and full of the kind of leadership thinking admins rarely get to hear directly from the executive side.
And trust us, you'll want to stay for Part 2!
