The Difference Between a Traditional EA and a Strategic EA

Welcome to Module 1 of ChatGPT for the Strategic EA. This is not a course about replacing the human skill, discretion, and relationship intelligence that make you exceptional. It is about giving those strengths more room to shine. You will learn how to use ChatGPT as a thinking partner: one that helps you draft faster, explore possibilities, organize your ideas, and create more time for anticipation, decision support, and meaningful executive partnership.

We will begin with mindset because the way you approach the tool matters more than any single prompt. Then we will learn what ChatGPT does well, where it needs your judgment, how to navigate your account, how to personalize your experience safely, and how to protect confidential information. We will finish by connecting everything to 15 Strategic EA capabilities and a practical toolkit you can continue building throughout the course.
