Supporting EA Team Leads: ISE Partners Hosts Roundtable on Always-On Culture and Wellbeing
Being an EA Team Lead or EA Manager comes with a unique kind of pressure. It's not just about managing your own workload, it's about holding space for a whole team's, often while staying switched on around the clock. That's the reality ISE Partners is addressing head-on with an exclusive roundtable event this September, designed specifically for those responsible for managing EAs across their organisations.
Why This Conversation Matters
As EA specialists, we spend our days connecting exceptional business support professionals with the organisations that need them. Along the way, we hear the same theme again and again from EA Team Leads and Managers: the always-on culture that defines so much of modern EA work doesn't stop at the top of the ladder, if anything, it intensifies. When you're accountable for more than your own inbox, protecting your energy and wellbeing can quickly slip down the priority list.
This roundtable was created to give EA Team Leads and Managers a genuine space to pause, reflect, and hear how their peers are navigating the same challenges.
What to Expect
Facilitated by Amy Mummery, former EA Team Lead at Deliveroo, where she supported senior leadership through the company's exponential growth from start-up to major tech player. The session draws on both lived leadership experience and professional coaching insight. Amy left Deliveroo in 2022 to retrain as a health and wellness coach, and now helps EA leaders unpack exactly the pressures she once faced herself.
The session includes:
- A short introduction and self-assessment, to get a sense of where everyone's really at
- Honest reflections from Amy's own experience as a former EA Team Lead
- An open, discussion-led format, with prompts designed to surface real experiences, whilst kept constructive and forward-looking, not just a list of frustrations
- A closing round where every attendee shares one strength or strategy that's working for them, so the group leaves with energy and practical takeaways
This is an interactive session and works best with an open, honest group, so attendees should come ready to share as much as they'd like.
