Zürcher Nachrichten - DonnaPro Introduces AI-Trained Executive Assistants for European CEOs

AI-Trained, Human-Led Executive Support

DonnaPro's introduction of AI-trained executive assistants marks a clear distinction in the executive support market. This isn't automation replacing human judgment; it's AI tools amplifying the effectiveness of skilled professionals who already know how to think ahead.

"Our EAs use AI tools strategically to multiply their effectiveness, not replace their judgment," said Filip Pesek, founder of DonnaPro. "An AI-trained EA at DonnaPro knows when to use automation and when human nuance is irreplaceable. They can process information faster, draft better, research deeper; but the thinking, the relationships, and context stay human."

The distinction matters because founders aren't hiring a bot. They're hiring a thought partner who happens to use the best tools available.

The 9-Day Difference

Every Donna has already completed a rigorous six-stage selection process: multiple rounds of interviews, demo task assessments, reference checks, and personality evaluation. Once selected, they undergo two weeks of intensive training before touching any client work. That preparation is DonnaPro's responsibility.

When a client says yes to DonnaPro, the company already has professionals in the system who are vetted, trained, and ready. DonnaPro simply finds the best match and the client is onboarded within nine days.

Compare that to direct hiring: months of recruitment, interviews, and onboarding, with no guarantee the relationship works out.

"The real cost of a direct hire isn't the salary," said Filip. "It's everything around it. We've absorbed that complexity. Founders get the output without managing the system."

Every Donna is also backed by a full support team: an account manager, quality manager, and IT support. It's not a solo freelancer with no safety net. It's a structured professional environment designed to protect the founder's time.

Built for European Founders

DonnaPro's executive assistants are based in the EU, providing stronger alignment around GDPR compliance, CET and GMT time-zone coverage, cultural communication expectations, and the day-to-day business understanding that comes from working within the same region.

For European founders, that alignment matters more than most realize. It's not just about time zones or language. It's about context, the shared understanding of how business operates, how communication flows, and what "professional" looks like in the market they operate in.

"Founders shouldn't have to explain how European business works to someone who's supposed to be supporting them," said Filip. "Our EAs already understand that world.
