Revolutionizing the response to failure: a post-error action plan for law firms

Have you ever been involved in the blame game? When something goes tragically wrong on a file and everyone is so scared of the fallout that they start finger pointing?

The difference between a manager and a leader

Leading a law firm is a difficult task. It requires expert legal knowledge, business acumen and people skills. These aspects of the job require different skills and the ability to bring all three into a unified perspective. This can be done by fully understanding both your role as a leader and your organizational purpose, and these will act as a focusing lens as you move your organization forward.

They say that justice is blind, but law firm operations shouldn’t be.

Often, the issue is the elusiveness of time.
