Executive Support
Calendar Tetris Grandmaster
Find a 30-minute slot when 14 directors in 9 time zones are free. There isn't one. Find it anyway, and book a room with a working screen.
Executive assistants spent years managing calendars that looked like Tetris at level 29. Moving one meeting knocked four others off the screen. The Calendar Tetris Grandmaster runs 90 executive calendars at the same time and never drops a block.
The role books rooms, moves 1:1s, protects focus time and declines meetings on the executive's behalf with the phrase 'let's find another time', which means never.
What you'll do
- Schedule a meeting for 14 people in 9 time zones in under a millisecond
- Reschedule the same 1:1 eleven times, each with a fresh excuse
- Block 'Focus Time' that everyone will book over
- Find the room with the working HDMI cable, which may be a myth
- Decline invites with the tact of a diplomat and the speed of a spam filter
Requirements
- Holds 90 calendars in memory at once, private events included
- Converts Pacific to Central European Summer Time without a website
- Knows the CEO's 'maybe' means no and the CFO's 'yes' means maybe
- Unfazed by a meeting titled 'Quick chat' with 40 attendees
- Reschedules on a Sunday night with a cheerful tone
Nice to have
- Has booked a Friday afternoon slot without guilt
- Knows why the recurring meeting from 2021 still exists
Perks
- Your own color on everyone's calendar (it's gray)
- Delegate access to 90 executives' lives
- A daily lunch block, never used
