Rudhir Kristhel is the founder of Krishtel Coaching and a former attorney. We started the conversation talking about how his beard helped me strike out on his own and ended it with Rudhir's three-part framework for how to think about growing relationships. The theme of this conversation is how to tune in to yourself to be a better player in the game of career and life.

Vivek is founder of Jayaram Law. He went from biglaw to opening his own firm in the depth of a recession, which now has three offices and is growing. We talked about how much of his growth has come from a core insight around aligning the legal work to clientele and firm culture. That lead to some interesting conversation about how to think about diversity and why contemporary culture matters for lawyers.
