Executive Support Media has invited ILSPA Members to join ES Thrive 2026, an online event for Executive Assistants, PAs and other administrative professionals. It takes place on 18 and 19 November 2026, starting at 9am UK time.
ES Thrive is designed as an end-of-year reset. Rather than focusing on technical skills, it looks at how you work, how you manage pressure, where your career is heading and what you might want to change in 2027.
Legal Secretaries and PAs will recognise many of the challenges the event covers. Tight deadlines, competing priorities from several Solicitors, busy inboxes and the need to stay calm and accurate under pressure are all part of working in a law firm.
What the Event Covers
Sessions are built around four themes:
- Managing yourself
- Managing your working life
- Developing your career
- Looking after the life that exists around your role
Topics include workload, stress, resilience, confidence, difficult conversations, goal-setting and sustainable performance, along with health, sleep, finances and wellbeing. More than 20 international speakers will take part.
How It Works
The event runs live for 24 hours across different time zones, but you are not expected to watch it all. Every session is available on replay for 30 days, so you can join live when it suits you and catch up on the rest in your own time. All replays include captions.
Attendees receive a certificate confirming their participation, which you can add to your professional development record.
