Leading groups is one of the most challenging jobs in a law firm. Without focus and discipline, group activities can easily waste lawyers’ time, create needless administrative burden, demoralize group members and damage the leader’s practice. But well-run groups can organize and support lawyers to help them all build more successful practices than they could on their own.
Gladstone’s PG Leader Advisory service is a turnkey program to help group leaders ensure their groups add value to their lawyers’ practices, while preserving the time and focus leaders need to maintain their own busy practices.
The PG Leader Advisory service includes the following resources:
- A presentation for new group leaders that details how to lead their groups effectively and efficiently
- A detailed process and toolkit for developing a group strategic plan
- A detailed process and toolkit to help leaders set their operating priorities and the group’s ongoing operations, and to determine what to delegate, and to whom
- A template for periodic reporting to firm leadership on strategic status, progress and future priorities to promote buy-in and support from the firm
- Ongoing coaching support, as needed, to help group leaders stay on course
