This week on the Powerhouse Lawyers podcast, I connected with Jamie Sternberg! We waste no time on getting to the meat of this episode. Lawyers aren’t taught business development, let alone how to be a lawyer. [
05:34] So, Jamie shares her journey from focusing on billable hours to prioritizing business development and its impact on her career. One of the biggest game changers for her was utilizing LinkedIn. [
18:12] I know it can be scary or seem unimportant to develop a digital presence, but I promise it is one of the more important things you can do for your career. Jamie suggests starting with a basic profile and making a few simple comments on other people’s posts. [
24:50] I know you’re thinking “okay, but Erin, do you not know how busy I already am?” Jamie touches on how her coaching helps attorneys fit business development into their schedules in a realistic way, work through the nerves about posting, and stop you in your tracks before starting habits of ineffective business development. [
34:30] Bonus: Jamie uses human design in coaching [
37:46] Then she shares a Legally Blonde Moment featuring a reflection on rushing. The victim: the car AND the mailbox. [
48:19]
