For episode four of the Build Better Habits webinar series, Osprey were joined by Tim Kidd, CEO at The Institute of Legal Finance & Management (ILFM), Joanna Gaudoin, director at Inside Out Image, and Leah Steele, owner of searching for serenity. Our expert panel shared their practical tips and advice on how law firms can implement an effective workplace culture that empowers employees, retains talent and improves overall performance.

The discussion highlighted the importance of having a human approach to your operational strategy. As well as focusing on your clients’ needs, invest resource into ensuring a supportive, honest, and collaborative culture is present throughout your firm to improve retention and help hire new talent.

The effectiveness of your firm’s culture will determine the longevity of your business.
