D.C. Bar's Washington Lawyer interviewed senior counsel Steven Levin in an article titled, "Fostering Productive Dissent in Teams." Steve relies on his previous military and DOJ experiences to discuss the qualities of good leadership, and the importance and benefits of good leadership to law firms and their clients. In the article, Steve said: “The best leaders [have been] those who wanted to know what I thought and weren’t going to chide or embarrass me if what I thought was different from what they thought. You might have a bad idea the first four out of five times. If someone embarrasses you, you won’t be willing to speak that fifth time.” Visit Washington Lawyer to read the full article: https://lnkd.in/eXFQeFvz
