Vulnerability Transformation Program
LEVERAGE VULNERABILITY IN YOUR Lawyers and your firm
Many high achievers I coach tend to be nervous about Vulnerability. As a leader, you may believe others expect you to solve any situation. You may fear appearing weak if you come across as not having all the answers. Lawyers own their firms. If they want to manage, it's their prerogative. But the smarter lawyers hire business experts to help, just as clients hire the firm's lawyers for their legal expertise.
Leadership is all about establishing visions, identifying issues quickly, and creating space for innovation. One of the most significant barriers to effective leadership is a simple fear of sharing your genuine thoughts and feelings. We fear the potential consequences of rejection, ridicule, judgment, or even loss of power. Through embracing your Vulnerability, those you lead begin to become empowered, and their growth soon follows.
WITHOUT VUlNERABlE leadership, you MAY BE:
Lacking transparent conversations and dominance by senior professionals.
Ineffective at providing a compelling sense of individual purpose aligned with the organizational purpose.
Struggling to provide timely, short bursts of feedback suitable to all leadership.
Needing development in listening and conversational skills; ensuring you and all leaders feel seen, heard, and understood.
Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and failing to hold teams accountable
Trying to fix and advise but still not having impact needed.
Requiring mind shifts to collaborate in a vulnerable way with others to increase connectivity, resiliency, and innovation.
