5 Keys to Create a Workplace Where People Thrive
What do you want to be remembered for? Today’s guest says her legacy is in seeing value in the race car driver AND the pit crew. [00:40] Heather Olson’s journey to becoming a lawyer started with a three million dollar case settlement. The even better part about that, she wasn’t even a lawyer, yet! [04:36] Besides her incredible track record as an attorney, Heather also shows us what it means to build a business through intentional leadership. [11:11] One of her keys to success: personal and firm core values. That’s how she is able to stay on track, know when a new hire is a good fit, and even when it’s time to transition someone out of the company. [18:13] With values comes boundaries and dealing with conflict as a team. Pivoting is hard, but pivoting as a unit?! That’s a marathon! [23:19] So, how do other law practices get better at managing people, not just case loads? Turns out, that’s the make or break detail to successful teams and attorney careers! [28:06] As a blueprint for equitable and people first business practices, Olson Law has a lot in store for the future. [39:00] But, all work and no play makes for a dull Powerhouse Lawyer. Heather shares her Legally Blonde moment! Let’s just say, you think you’ve had enough of the treadmill? Sometimes the treadmill has had enough of you! [44:01]
