Meet Evert Jan de Groot, the co-founder of Vortex, an investment company that invests in growing companies with a profitable core business that uses technology as a differentiator.
The Challenge: Too many meetings, too little time
Evert Jan found himself overwhelmed with an ever-growing list of meetings and the constant struggle of managing his agenda.
“I was spending more time organizing and attending meetings than focusing on the core aspects of my business,” he shared. “I knew I needed help, but finding the right support was a challenge.”
Choosing Headroom Assistance: Flexibility that makes a difference
As someone who often found his schedule overloaded with meetings, Evert Jan knew he needed more peace and clarity in his work life. When deciding between an in-house EA or remote support, he chose Headroom Assistance for its flexibility. “Headroom provided the adaptability that an in-house EA couldn’t,” Evert Jan explained. “The ability to scale support up or down as needed was a game-changer for me.”
The results
With the help of his EA, Evert Jan’s calendar, inbox, and to-do lists quickly became manageable. “We have a meeting once a week, and the rest of our communication happens through Teams,” he said. Together, they streamlined his inbox and calendar, ensuring that only high-priority meetings were scheduled. This proactive approach allowed Evert Jan to free up his evenings, which he previously spent catching up on emails, and focus on more important tasks.
When asked if he would recommend Headroom Assistance, Evert Jan didn’t hesitate. “Absolutely,” he affirmed. “But I also believe that the specific EA you work with makes a big difference. It’s about finding the right fit for your needs.”
Evert Jan’s experience with Headroom Assistance highlights the profound difference that dedicated, flexible support can make for busy professionals. By reclaiming valuable time, leaders like Evert Jan can focus on driving their businesses forward.
