472. AMMA — The Truth About Operations and the People Who Run Them
The Game Changing Attorney Podcast with Michael MogillShow Notes
The work that drains you isn't a discipline problem. It's a sign you've been ignoring.
In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill dig into what happens when a firm owner's instincts no longer match what the business actually needs. Michael makes the case that the parts of the work you dread, the growth you can't seem to unlock, and the partner you keep clashing with are all pointing at the same thing: a truth about how you're built that you've been working around instead of working with.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
How to tell whether you're a visionary or an integrator, and why forcing yourself to be both will burn you out
When optimizing a business that already works stops paying off, and what to do to actually grow it
How to keep a partnership from breaking when you and your partner no longer share the same appetite for risk
Stop white-knuckling the parts of your business that drain you and start building toward the version that doesn't.
