Ignorance is Expensive
What you don’t know can kill your business. As a lawyer, a lack of knowledge in three specific areas can be especially deadly:
- Business Strategy
- Self Awareness
- Relationship Development
Last week I shared some information with you in each of these areas. I know how busy you are and I know how hard you work so I figured I’d take a minute and provide you with a summary of the five most impactful articles I shared last week.
These are the articles you voted most important (via social media):
