LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Networking — the ripple effect
Like the ripples that spread out wider and wider in a pool of water when you throw a pebble into it, your circle of networking contacts can also spread out, encompassing each other and expanding greatly on that original circle.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Get logical about logistics
No business, including a business of law, should begin without a plan. A plan is critical to give the business direction and keep it on track in terms of goals and finances.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Forward thinkers = forward movers
The fact that the world is changing is no surprise to anyone, but the fact that the legal world is changing seems to be a surprise to far too many lawyers.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Careful techie, you might get what you wish for
Technology seems to be at the top of everyone’s wish list this year. But be careful: You just might get what you wish for.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Team play wins the game
With the highlights of Super Bowl XLIX still firmly in our minds, it is a good time to think about the importance of teamwork and how teamwork leads to the success of any team, whether on the field or in a business office.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: The importance of job descriptions
Having a comprehensive job description for every position in the law office is essential for several reasons.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Shared goals equal shared success
Law firms are comprised of people who do not necessarily have the same goals in mind. Thus, it is important to get together to discuss individual ideas of goals so that everyone can get on the same page for the benefit of the firm.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Firms, public expecting more from lawyers
Lawyers owe many duties to any number of people, but they’re increasingly being asked to do even more.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Real people still real drive behind marketing
Any business, including the business of law, grows through personal relationships.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: For successful lawyers, the learning never ends
Those diplomas on your wall constitute a point of pride, and they should. But if you hope to achieve an advanced degree of success — not just an advanced degree — you must not see them as an end to your education.
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: Are buyouts ageism or a contract issue?
An excess number of lawyers — surely there must be a joke about that!
LAWBIZ COACHES CORNER: The problem with working long past 40 hours
It seems the more that Americans strive for a work-life balance, the more that such a goal becomes, well, out of balance.
