From the first day of law school, you were trained to be the one with the answer, with little to no training about working on a team. But in the workforce, you should work with others, and as the saying goes, "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

In this episode of The Legal Department, change management consultant Michele Mollkoy shares how curiosity, listening, and self-awareness are crucial for lawyers leading teams. Whether you're the leader or a team member, you need to be curious about others on your team, what motivates them, and how to align team strengths to department goals. It's good to be curious about what's important to the boss. Tune in to this episode for insights on moving from an individual contributor to a team leader.
