Accelerate Your Business:
Empower Your Team with the Skills They Need
Backed by a network of alumni from top-tier companies across diverse industries, Nova equips existing or incoming Chiefs of Staffs and Executive Assistants with the tools they need to strategically support your company’s leadership.
Our expert-level training provides your teams with the knowledge to improve executive operations at every level of your organization–saving you time, money, and headaches down the road.
Our students enroll from some of the most influential companies in the world, across all industries.
Strategic support shouldn’t be a bottleneck.
Senior leaders should be focused on vision, strategy, leadership, and growth–not buried in execution and follow-ups. But without strong, competent support, even the best leaders can get stuck in the weeds of day-to-day operations. That’s where Nova’s tried-and-tested expertise comes in to help.
We train your organization’s Executive Assistants and Chiefs of Staff to deliver impact, so your company can move faster, more efficiently, and with the confidence you need to gain real leverage in your industry.
"The course rounded out my training by helping me better understand how a Chief of Staff can connect people, priorities, and execution while helping leaders stay focused on what matters most...providing unreasonable service to our clients."
– Tracy Van Pelt, Executive Assistant, Orrick
