Crushing Chaos with Law Firm Mentor

How To Shift Your Law Firm Culture


Listen Later

Shifting culture takes time. It's not as simple as kind of going in, firing everybody and starting over again because, frankly, most of us can't afford to do that. So, how do you shift the culture? Here’s what to do, and, especially, what NOT to do.

 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Having a reset conversation and following through with new rules.
  • The importance of enforcing the new rules.
  • Hiring people that will fit your culture and know the rules from the start.

My favorite excerpt from the episode:

TIME: 00:04:18 (40 Seconds)

You have to induce people to follow your rules. Right. Just simply saying, hey, I know we've been doing it this way for the past five years, but now new rule. And hope that they simply follow the new rule. Some people will, right. Some people by virtue of you stopping and having a conversation with them, it's going to jar them into a new course of behavior. But for most people, the vast majority of people are creatures of habit, right? So they have been pretty automatically engaging in behavior in a certain way, not because they wanted to do something to you or even for you, but because they fell into a modus operandi. To change that, it is going to take some time.
