What got you here might not get you where you want to go. And for many law firm owners, that realization is difficult to accept.

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill explores why the survival mentality that helps firm owners get off the ground often becomes a liability as they grow. From micromanaging teams to avoiding calculated risks, this episode reveals what it really takes to move from operator to strategic leader.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

Why the survival mindset that once protected you can now hold you back
How to stop being disappointed in your team by setting clear expectations
What it takes to stop reacting tactically and start thinking like a visionary

Start thinking like a visionary so you can lead your firm to the next level.
