In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Dan Warburton discuss:
- Lessons learned the hard way in leadership and delegation.
- Top things lawyers should delegate and are not.
- How to ensure those you delegate to are not going to leave your firm.
- The process and steps for delegation.
Key Takeaways:
- Only when somebody feels like their future is being impacted by their actions will they take their actions seriously.
- While it will take time to delegate your responsibilities effectively and appropriately, it will save time and make a difference more quickly than you realize.
- It is not required to do all the client work to maintain the client relationship.
- Write down your procedures. If you don’t, everything gets done slightly differently, then there is no way to track and improve it.
"Delegating can feel painful and like wading through mud at the beginning. And, in the short run, it is much easier to carry on doing it all yourself, but then you build a firm that keeps you in urgency, not working on what’s important." — Dan Warburton
