Consistent action leads to consistent results
“I pass with relief from the tossing sea of Cause and Theory to the firm ground of Result and Fact.” ― Winston S. Churchill
For several years now, we have focused on the following definition of success: “I like the work that I do, the clients I work with, and the people I work with; and I have enough time left over and enough money from my work to enjoy the rest of my life.”
Unfortunately, even the most strongly managed firms can have difficulty turning a decision into results. Three obstacles typically hinder change in law firms:
- The partners do not “buy in” to the proposed solution – in fact, they opt out and ensure that the decision can be taken in theory but the results will not occur in practice
- The non-lawyers are not listened to and do not have the authority to enforce decisions even when the partners have agreed on a course of action
- Firms do not have the resources, the skill sets and the experience available to implement change.
