💁🏻♀️The Value in Delegation 💁🏻♀️ 🎤 I had the privilege of sharing the stage in Pittsburgh with some top-notch legal folks this week as we discussed DELEGATION - the hesitations, the risks and the benefits. We could have sat on that stage for hours breaking down this complex topic and psychology associated with it. But in our quick hour, we hit some key points: 💥 Delegation only happens when there is a trust developed - trusting the capabilities, trusting the ability to manage the deadline, and simply trusting the individual. 💥 Delegating a task will often take more time than doing it yourself the first few times...but you are creating long-term efficienices. 💥 Delegating work provides training opportunities and the time and ability to bring in more work. 💥 Delegating work leads to MORE client opportunities - adding new perspectives and personalities to help enhance the relationship, fostering connections at various levels of the client leading to a greater integration, and exposing the client to other ways to work with the firm. 💥 Delegation is a process. And, it's hard. 🏟 One last key point - a baseball field in the middle of a city (like Pittsburgh) is simply awesome. #upwardstride

💁🏻♀️ Relationship Building 💁🏻♀️ If our panel on Relationship Building 101 taught us anything, it's that there is no single way forward. Rather, we should each find approaches that suit us. I couldn't agree more! That said, there were so many meaningful themes and takeaways - here are a few that stood out... 💥 Matt Schwartz shared that when he connects with people, authentically, nothing bad can happen. 💥 Renee Zaytsev looks for reasons to reach out and be helpful to her contacts. 💥 Kyle Robisch shared that when he thinks of someone, he acts in the moment. 📺 Watch the recording for the hour full of good conversation! Amy Goldstein - Thanks for coordianting a discussion on a fabulous, necessary topic! #upwardstride
