  • ENCORE: Defining Roles in Your Law Firm
    Aug 14 2025

    Lawyers, I have a question for you: Are you hiring for the role you need today or the role you’ll need tomorrow?

    It’s a question many law firm owners don’t stop to ask, and it’s one of the biggest reasons they struggle with high turnover, stagnant growth, and constant “emergency hires.”

    In this week’s episode of Crushing Chaos With Law Firm Mentor, I break down the difference between a task list and a job description and why that difference could be the key to building a law firm that grows without you doing all the work.

    Listen in and learn:

    • How a growth-focused job description keeps your team loyal and motivated
    • Why even “static” roles can be designed for advancement
    • The hidden cost of business gaps and how to turn them into profit
    • Why a CEO’s job is to grow work for others, not themselves

    If you want to stop hiring reactively and start building a business that runs profitably without you, this is the episode for you.

    Introduction (00:00)

    Task list vs job description (04:05)
