On Law Firm Leadership and Accountability (2009)
A thought provoking message from my good friend, Ed Reeser.
Ed’s message: The challenge to leaders, and to the lawyers they lead, starts this October. That’s when: 1) projections for 2009 results will become accurate; 2) banks reset loan line amounts and conditions for 2010; 3) calls for capital are made; 4) partner compensation for 2010 is set; and 5) greater cost cutting may be proposed. How can the leaders rally support for this investment? In a word, accountability. Firm leaders must demonstrate their own confidence in their budgets and business plans by holding themselves directly accountable for the outcomes.
