Are you working with your dream team in your law firm? Or do you feel like your staff has become demotivated and unproductive?
If so, before placing the blame squarely on your team, consider this: how connected do you feel to your business vision, or “why” right now? Great teams need more than just directives - they need a common vision.
Because the truth is employees check out mentally before checking out physically. And if this is happening in your firm, it can have a hugely negative impact on your bottom line. And if you’re experiencing this in your law firm, it may be time for a workplace reset.
But where do you even start an undertaking to breathe new life back into your practice while keeping up with the demands of running a business?
Today we’re getting advice from an expert who has spent the last 20 years helping business leaders transform their workplaces.
In this week’s podcast, bestselling author and leading authority on workplace transformation Julie Bartkus join us to discuss how to create work environments that lead to greater productivity and growth.
Julie talks about the impact of your business vision on your team’s productivity and how to emotionally reconnect with that vision. She also discusses how to orient your process and policies to keep new employees motivated beyond their first few weeks - and get demotivated employees back on track.
