Miriam Airington-Fisher: Be the Entrepreneur of Your Law Firm

Description

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Miriam Airington-Fisher discuss:

Building your business on your own or under a firm umbrella.
Embracing an entrepreneurial mindset.
Growing and scaling in different ways.
Advice for those lawyers going out on their own.

Key Takeaways:

You get a higher return when you’re the one that you’re investing in.
Even though we are all important in our own ways, we can still delegate to others. You do not need to be the person talking to every single person on every single issue.
Take yourself out of the day-to-day equation. You can do that with technology, a small staff, or a large staff. Regardless of your goals, getting out of the whirlwind counts as scaling.
There is never a perfect time to pull the trigger. Draw a line in the sand, bet on yourself, and go do it.

"When you're an entrepreneur and you're in control, you can you can shape how the business looks." — Miriam Airington-Fisher
