The Partnership Playbook in Practice
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The Partnership Playbook was built on a simple but powerful belief: that the executive-admin relationship is one of the most underinvested partnerships in any organization.
In this episode, Melissa Mahoney and her Executive Administrative Partner, Chris Cason, don't just talk about that belief — they live it. Together, they open up about the final three sections of the books and what it meant to explore them as two people already in the work together.
This is a conversation about trust, about growth, and about what becomes possible when a partnership stops being functional and starts being something more.
