Grab David's Freebie: The 2-Step Mindset Hack to Reprogram Your Life for Success
Are you a law firm owner who is thinking about improving the culture of your firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, co-hosts Jim and Tyson welcome back David Neagle, a bestselling author and founder of a global consulting company. The discussion centers on fostering a culture of success within law firms.
For David, fostering a culture of success within law firms involves a mixture of different things. One of these things is for those in the legal field to understand that there are no mistakes, only lessons. Focusing on mistakes can make employees feel guilt and shame for doing something wrong. But, if a mistake is turned into a lesson, people are more likely to be open and trustworthy with what they do. Thus truly leads to a healthy and successful business.
The internal voice of a business owner can affect the culture of a firm. These voices can be fear or the ideas from friends and family. It is important to separate those voices to understand what you want for yourself and your business. Other people’s ideas can control how you think and view your success and can drive a wedge between you and success. David suggests to determine what it is that you want and make a decision to follow the voice that will get you there.
