INTERNATIONAL REVIEW is my 24-page glossy, printed magazine distributed to over 1600 law firm chairs and managing partners throughout North America.

I trust, that like me, you are looking forward to a dynamic spring and summer and am hopeful that this latest issue of my International Review magazine will contribute to your personal productivity and leadership efforts.

We start with seven prescriptive ingredients for Bringing Your Strategy Process Back To Life given the challenges of a flat or declining demand for legal services.

I was delighted to have joined David Morley, Senior Partner, Allen & Overy LLP; David J. Parnell, ABA Author, Speaker, and Forbes and American Lawyer Media Columnist; and Maurice A. Watson, Chairman, Husch Blackwell LLP in conducting a Webinar a few months ago.  Strategies For Overcoming Obstacles To Change is a transcript of some of my comments in response to the questions posed.

The Disruption In Transitioning A New Law Firm Leader is intended to provide some guidance toward understanding how your firm can be disrupted during the transition from an outgoing leader to a new one; while Analyzing A Leadership Candidate’s Strengths is an excerpt from my latest work: The Changing Of The Guard: Selecting Your Next Firm Leader, and suggests how the selection of any leader can benefit from utilizing psychometric testing.

Our final selection, The Distorted View That Some May Offer, is a rather unusual article in that it was penned by a managing partner who took issue with how some consultants can be less than truthful in their representations to potential clients . . . firms like yours.  Knowing the author I thought the article worthy of reprinting.

As always, I sincerely hope that you find some practical ideas, tips and techniques here that you can put to use immediately.  Please send me your observations, critiques, comments and suggestions with respect to any of these articles.
