Le-an's journey in remote work began at a young age when she realized the potential of earning a good living without having to work overseas like her father. Now, she aims to impact the lives of 1 million Filipinos by enabling them to work remotely through 2xYou. Le-an shares her expertise on hiring virtual assistants and outlines a three-step processclarifying tasks/outcomes, creating systems, and empowering/training virtual assistants.
