The LEADERSHIP EDGE



What began as an idea over three years ago has come to fruition.

Back then, Alicia Cohen from Amba Press reached out and planted a seed - if I was ever interested in writing about life as an Executive Assistant in education, she would love to hear my story.

At the time, I remember thinking, who would want to read my story?

But at the beginning of 2025, something shifted.

I realised it was time.
Time to trust the journey.
Time to honour the work.
Time to give voice to experiences so many EAs working within educational environments live every day, often quietly and behind the scenes.

And now, here we are.

This book provides practical tips, strategies, and approaches to help EAs develop their personal and professional practice, while posing a fresh perspective on leadership that goes beyond hierarchies and salary brackets.


Blending together lessons from a personal journey, leadership spotlights, and wisdom from leading thinkers, philosophers and artists, this book offers a roadmap for EAs to discover their own leadership edge.

Many thanks to our inspirational contributors and the team at Amba Press. The Leadership Edge will be published late March 2026 - however, you can pre-order your copy now - see link below.
