Rule 3: Ensure That Everyone Knows That The Client Is The Main Event
Rule Three: Ensure That Everyone In Your Firm Knows That The Client Is the Main Event.
Conveying what you are doing for clients and how you will accomplish that needs to be transmitted clearly to everyone in your firm: from the big picture to small details: what does the law firm do, who are the clients, what do the clients do, in what city is the general counsel's office, who works with the GC on that project, does she like e-mails or phone calls for short-answer projects? One way to start this process with a new employee is by having her or him read a short, amusingly-written confidential "Practice Guide" (with almost no procedures or "rules") on the firm's overall goals, your firm's service vision, client descriptions and genuinely useful ways to work--before the first day of work. Everyone must know.

This and last week....
Next time I have a week off I’ll not stay in DC. Got many odds and ends done—but made rafts of enemies barely working at it. So if I’ve offended anyone in real or digital life? Your problem, Jack. 😀

Ah, Feminism.
“Feminism is the final bitter retreat of women who can’t compete in the heterosexual marketplace: an ideology of the unwanted.”
35 years ago the above statement was at best nasty, false and even comical. Feminism was embraced by doers/achievers of both sexes.
Now? It is true.
