In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Eric Gros-Dubois discuss:

Eric’s motivations for starting his law firm (and what held him back from taking the first step).Surround yourself with those who are better than you.Working to the highest and best use of your time.Creatively hiring to suit your law firm’s needs.

Key Takeaways:

You can delegate a task, but you cannot delegate the responsibility. As a manager or a leader, you cannot pass the blame if something goes wrong.Believe you are successful, and act like it, even if you aren’t there yet. You will be putting yourself in a position to be successful, not a position of failure.Effective marketing and networking is more financially beneficial to your law firm than if you were billing hours. You can hire and delegate the work to another associate, but nobody knows your firm better than you.

"It is very important to me that I track every single referral I receive because the people who are sending me those referrals, those are the people I need to give love to." — Eric Gros-Dubois
