Counseling New Firm Leaders (2010)
In addition to my semi-annual master class at the University of Chicago for new managing partners, I’ve increasingly been called upon to provide one-on-one counsel to those whose appointment dates do not coincide with the dates of our one-day program. While there are a couple of good books (like First 90 Days by Mike Watkins) that provide context for the first days in a new leadership role, many of these texts have been written from the prospective of a corporate (top down) environment and where the new leader is usually brought in from the outside. We all know that in a professional service firm, the situation is very different. Among a vast array of issues and challenges that Brian Burke (Chair Emeritus at Baker & Daniels) and I review in our one-day master class, here are a dozen quick tips for new leaders to reflect upon.
