ANECDOTE

Partner's Client-First Strategy

  • A law partner spent his time socializing with wealthy clients instead of grinding at the office.
  • That network protected his job and brought in lucrative deals while others were replaceable.
INSIGHT

Networking Is Higher-Value Skill

  • Relationship-building (finding clients) is a higher-value skill than technical grind work.
  • A strong network provides the best job security across industries.
ADVICE

Give Value First

  • Give value first: be a giver rather than a taker to rise professionally.
  • Help others get ahead and they'll return the favor over time.
