A leader is anyone who has influence over another person. Yet not all leaders are effective ones.

Effective leadership has the power to reshape the legal sector. Research shows leadership behaviors—not leaders, but demonstrated leadership skills and characteristics—have direct and indirect impact on virtually every aspect of law firm performance including:

  • Engagement (which translates directly into billable hours).
  • Retention (which translates directly into lost revenue and sunk costs).
  • Culture (which translates into improved diversity and retention).
  • Client service (which translate into expanded, lasting client relationships).
