Gene has built a decades-long career in litigation while staying deeply embedded in the profession — the ABA, his community, his practice. That kind of longevity doesn't happen by accident. I wanted to find out what he's doing that most senior lawyers quietly stop doing before they hit their breaking point.

Listen to learn:

  • how the small, chronic frustrations inside a firm — the ones nobody talks about — are exactly what drives senior leaders to 211 degrees before they quietly walk out the door
  • what law firm leaders can learn from Gene's career about building cultures where senior talent actually wants to stay
  • how to think about handing off your case load to others while honoring all the relationships involved

If this conversation made you wonder how close your own senior leaders are to the breaking point, let's talk. I help managing partners find out before it costs them $3 million.
