In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Michele Ross discuss: Why patience and time are key to anything worthwhile. Avoiding repeated mistakes and moving forward with improvement. Business management tools to make your law firm more efficient. Building a great team that works toward the same vision. Key Takeaways: You will have to find your way forward from the mistakes you make - and you will make mistakes. Don’t let them keep you down. It is a balancing act and, as a law firm owner, the key is removing hats with delegation and technology. You cannot do everything all the time. Understanding your values will help make hiring decisions easier because you know who you are looking for, even if you haven’t met them yet. Ask your employees what their goals are - not just within the office, but outside of the office as well. "Be interested in what your employees can contribute beyond just work product. Make them a part of the movement and the vision, because they're the ones that can really open your eyes up." — Michele Ross Join our interactive webinar, "Quality Over Quantity: Getting More Qualified Clients" on June 11th, and secure your spot today!
