#167: Success, Happiness & Being Human with Scott Oliver
Today’s conversation is with fellow attorney Scott Oliver, a Partner at Lewis Kappes. Scott became the youngest equity partner in his firm’s history. But that’s not why we’re talking or what we will be chatting about today. Scott is a big believer that being more “human” as a lawyer leads to greater success and happiness. Which is precisely what we will be getting into today (and more).
I first became aware of Scott via LinkedIn. Sometimes, he comes from a business development angle. But most of the time, he writes about life – as a lawyer, spouse, manager/leader and parent. I was drawn to his transparency around what it takes to be a successful lawyer who is also happy. Here is what you’ll get inside of today’s episode:
--> How to rethink success and find a practice area that "fills your cup" (hint: values are key).
--> How to build your personal brand and book of business (even as a new lawyer).
--> The power of sharing publicly and building a brand.
