Building and leading a national team

Spearheading a national team is not easy, least of all in a listed company and against the backdrop of a global pandemic. However, if one is sure of their purpose and implements the right strategies, opportunities will emerge and success will follow. On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Shine Lawyers medical law national practice leader Clare Eves to discuss using life challenges to form one’s leadership style, learning how a business runs and one’s place in it as a leader, strategies for launching a national team, how such strategies evolved in the age of COVID-19 and, in her position, how to balance such considerations against the interests of working within a listed company. The pair also dive into Ms Eves’ upbringing in a small working-class town in the United Kingdom, how early life challenges led her towards the legal profession and, more specifically, finding a path towards a practice area of law for which she was fully equipped, personally and professionally, to navigate issues and opportunities.
