How do empathy and employee investment transform a business into a powerhouse of growth and innovation?


In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill interviews Sherry Stewart Deutschmann, entrepreneur, speaker, and author of Lunch With Lucy: Maximize Your Profits By Investing In Your People. From humble beginnings, Sherry built a 40 million dollar company that was included in the Inc. 5000 List of Fasting Growing Private Companies for 10 years straight.


Here’s what you’ll take away:

  • How an employee-centric approach can drive business success by fostering transparency, trust, and engagement among your team
  • The importance of empathetic leadership that enables you to connect with your employees on a personal level and integrate their feedback into actionable business improvements
  • Why company-wide financial transparency leads to a more motivated, cohesive team that drives profitability and growth

  • The secret to building a thriving law firm isn’t just about financial growth — it’s about elevating and empowering your team. Success comes from creating a people-first culture where employees are supported, challenged, and inspired to grow. When you invest in your team and align them with a shared vision, you unlock their full potential, driving results and redefining success not just for your business but for everyone involved.
