Referencing Jim Hassett's Post
What a great post about being seduced by success!! Thanks, Jim. To give you a teaser of what he writes, here you go:
"You may be so busy billing hours that you won't have time to read Robert Herbold's new book Seduced by Success. That's too bad, because it's probably a sign that you need to spend fewer hours billing and more hours planning for the future."
And he goes on to explain three primary destructive behaviors:
"The first destructive behavior is "lack of urgency...." Some law firms are aggressively increasing efforts to satsify current clients and find new ones. They are taking business away from the conservative firms that are acting as if the world has not changed since Nixon left office....The other two destructive behaviors Herbold describes are are "a defensive attitude toward any kind of new thinking" and an "entitlement mentality." Do those sound familiar?"
By the way, he's referencing the new book by Robert J. Herbold, Seduced by Success. I highly recommend reading his post. I'm also going to pick up the book.
