Are you looking to learn from another lawyer about lessons learned in the legal space? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, host Tyson Mutrux interviews Brett Stewart about his career journey, highlighting both his successes and failures. Brett shares valuable insights into the risks he took in business, the challenges of leadership, and the importance of fostering a healthy team environment.

Brett chats about the need to create a healthy team for a successful law firm. A healthy team has good conflict where people can share ideas and there is a sense of security where leaders will appreciate the feedback or thoughts of those under them. Another thing to consider is to establish team roles and who should do what. It is important to understand from the perspective of the owner how you want your team to look. Consult those on the team to get opinions on who should be responsible for what and how the team should function. It is best to do this collaboratively to ensure everyone is happy and knows their roles.

Using EOS systems is an integral part of running a successful firm. It is important to figure out how to use a system to fit your goals, without weakening it. EOS can make complicated systems or processes a lot easier, but it shouldn't be used to manage or control every part of your firm. Brett shares how EOS should be used to shine a light on the important things that need it and your staff should manage everything else.
