The GLM Tribe's Philosophy: How Leaders Handle Conflict in a Law Firm and Why Turnover is Often the Best Thing to Happen for Everyone Involved

If you have ever wondered whether you would be a good match for Great Legal Marketing (GLM) and it's founder's philosophy of life and law, then this is the the episode to listen to.

GLM is not for everyone and we don't try to be. We firmly reject the status quo, think most state bar organizations don't understand why many lawyer are sad and depressed and wouldn't know what to say if a law firm owner came to them and asked: "can you help me build a better life for myself and my family."

Before a gathering of leaders of some of the largest plaintiff law firms in the country, Ben Glass took lessons from the soccer refereeing world  to show law firm owners how to grow a team that loves coming to work for you. 

This the "secret" to your own happiness, he argues: Figure out what you want from life, build a business that is fully aligned with that life and one in which team members can thrive in their own lives and then find people who are inspired by that story.

Over time, folks will come and they will go. As Ben often says: the people who travel with you to a certain level of success are often not the people who can run with you to the next level.

That's life and we all have to be OK with that.

Listen in as Ben reveals his "magic question" that almost no one is brave enough to ask (but should ask of spouse, business partner and team members!)  and brings in what he has learned about the human brain as he raised nine children, including four adopted from hard places.

What Makes The GLM Tribe Special?

In short, we are the only organization within the "business builder for lawyers" space that is led by two practicing lawyers.

One thing we're sure you've noticed is that despite the variety of options within our space, no one else is mixing
the actual practice of law with business building in the way that we are.

There are no other organizations who understand the highs and lows of running a small law firm and are engaged in talking to real clients. That is what sets GLM apart from every other organization, and it is why we have had loyal members that have been with us for two-decades.
