If you have to schedule multiple 1:1s between your exec and other execs, what process for scheduling do you use? Do you send individual emails to each exec’s AA/EA with availability included or do you send a mass email to all the needed AAs/EAs with availability included?

So with our company we have access to everyone’s calendars. So the first thing I do is check to find mutual availability and schedule. If I can’t find time then I would reach out their AA individually and find some mutual time. If these other execs are outside of the company most definitely individual emails

We need this where I work!

I send a mass email with the AA/EAs in bcc with a request for availability. Easier to keep track and only have to send one email. Then align my person with the provided availability.

like

Send individual emails asking for windows of availability over the next x amount of days. Start with the most senior person and then request the next persons availability based on the one before.

like

Execs often block most or some of their calendar views. When that’s not an option, sometimes I’ll work with the Admin(s) who have the most difficult/complex calendars or who support the top ranking person to help narrow down options and offer that as availability. I’ll send that in an email to the group + AAs to assist with coordination and so they understand the details and priority of the Mtng.

Personally I’ve found phone calls work better If you’re looking for recurring 1:1s. What can take days over email can be accomplished in 20 minutes or less on the phone.

Agreed!!! It know this is an unpopular opinion with younger people, but this is true!

First gen, first year lawyer here. What do you do when you have family members who expect money from me every paycheck. I try to stand my ground but I get guilt tripped, especially when those family members were there for me.

It’s getting hard to save money when there is this expectation that I must give them money every paycheck. It feels like I have nothing for myself.

Stub year in a free market firm frustrated about hours. Everyone was complaining about being slow last month, but it seems most passed 100 hours and I only got 60. I’ve been doing everything mgmt says to do but I’m making no progress in getting work. I can’t help but think I don’t fit in here and people don’t like me - especially because I went to a lower-ranked school, grew up poor, and am neurodivergent so networking is hard for me. Whole system feels very nepotistic. I just want to give up.

Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior. I’ve been yelled at and berated by my coworker 3 separate times because of minor errors. I’m ready to quit. There are so many major issues in this company that I don’t know if I want to subject my mental health to this degree of toxicity. I just don’t know how to move forward from here.
