What does it take to shift from a struggling solo attorney to a CEO leading a thriving full-service law firm? Learn how authentic leadership transformed one law firm from solo practice to thriving law firm. In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, Steve sits down with Ross Albers, CEO of Albers & Associates in Timonium, Maryland. Ross shares his inspiring and raw journey—from getting fired just days before his wedding to building a successful law firm with 13 attorneys spanning multiple practice areas. His story is a powerful reminder that setbacks can become the foundation for future success with the right mindset and strategy. Ross opens up about his early days practicing criminal law and accepting low-fee cases. Instead of staying stuck in survival mode, he adopted a new perspective—one rooted in long-term business growth. That shift led him to evolve from lawyer to leader, transforming his role and his firm in the process. We examine the fundamentals of leadership and team development within the context of a law firm. Ross shares how creating clarity and accountability among team members has been crucial in fostering a high-performing environment. He emphasizes the power of structured feedback and regular communication, drawing inspiration from leadership heavyweights like John Maxwell. With insights on the importance of KPIs and well-defined onboarding processes, Ross illustrates how these elements contribute to cohesive and efficient firm operations. His personal experiences underscore the importance of aligning processes across various practice areas to achieve both cultural and financial success.  Ross also shares what it takes to scale a law firm without sacrificing your personal life. He speaks candidly about building trust, leading by example, and staying committed to continuous growth. Whether you're managing a solo practice or leading a growing firm, Ross's journey offers a roadmap for evolving from overwhelmed attorney to purpose-driven CEO. Tune in for actionable strategies to build a firm that reflects your values, supports your life, and fuels your biggest dreams.

How do we as business leaders not be discouraged by hard times and instead see the good that can result from them? In episode 242 of At The Table, Patrick Lencioni welcomes legendary financial expert and leadership voice Dave Ramsey for an unfiltered conversation about hard times. As Pat mentions in the intro, this is not your average interview. They discuss the current economic and cultural moment, explore the importance of values-based leadership, and call out the failures of transactional mindsets. This episode challenges leaders to hold the line on integrity, even—and especially—when things get tough.Topics explored in this episode: (2:46) The Ubiquity of Adversity* Leaders should expect to face new forms of adversity as they grow their business. * Adversity can distort one's perception, making challenges seem more overwhelming than they are. (8:24) The Genesis of a Calling* How Dave's bankruptcy led him to discover his calling in helping others manage their finances. * Helping others through hardship can transform personal struggles into a meaningful career. (17:24) Developing Resilience* How previous challenges can build resilience and provide perspective on current difficulties. * Leaders must work through challenges rather than avoid them. (22:50) Navigating the Stages of Business* Dave outlines the five stages of business growth: treadmill, pathfinder, trailblazer, peak performer, and legacy. * Each stage presents unique challenges and requires different strategies for success and progression. (31:09) Continuous Learning* Effective leaders are lifelong learners who integrate insights from various sources and generously credit others.Thanks to Dave Ramsey for being on the show!

Don't waste time with formality unless you really feel like you have to do it. Find that stuff the other way if you can. Because boards are a lot of work.""One of the problems with human nature is we'll take people problems and we'll try to throw a system at it, or we'll take a system problem and we'll try to throw people at it. And it's easy to just get really screwed up there.""Never underestimate the power of an enemy, real or imagined to motivate a company.""I'd rather be in a great business with a mediocre team than a mediocre business with a great team. The market wins every time.""This idea of the genius with a thousand helpers or genius with 12 helpers - a lot of businesses run that way. And if you wanna sell your business someday, you need to figure out how to run your business as a real business and not as 12 glorified assistants, which I see happen a lot."Learn how you can improve your customer and project workflows!

And not soothed over, not pretend like it wasn't there, but had to actually put in the hard work, do the things that needed to be done in order to get from the pain to the purpose." "The more that we live and experience, the better we get at picking up the tools that we've learned. But we still trip up and we still get hurt." "Stressed work is not your best work." "Compartmentalization makes meaningful relationships very difficult for men. Because they don't know how to let go and truly be who they are, especially in front of other men. Because they think they have to be a certain type of person around all these other men. Otherwise, they're somehow less of a man or less of a person rather than just being."  "Prepare your kid for the path, not the path for your kid." "The caterpillar has to struggle in the cocoon in order to become the butterfly that can actually fly away. If it doesn't struggle, that thing isn't gonna live, let alone thrive." "Selling is serving. And if you are serving your people, they never feel sold to." "Marketing is just storytelling. Most businesses get it wrong. They tell the wrong story. That's the problem. Most of them try to tell their own story. People don't care about that. The stories we need to be telling are about the people we've helped. We need to tell their stories." "The most valuable asset that we can give anybody is our gift of time because we can't get it back."

In this episode, Bryan and Shannon Miles, Co-Founders of Belay, talk to our host, Cameron Albert-Deitch, about their Book Smart pick, EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom From the Trenches, by Dave Ramsey.

Dr. Gupta after completing a one-year GPR in Cleveland, started a practice from scratch in 2005.  Armed with what he considered adequate knowledge, hand skills, and a personable demeanor, he watched as his practice floundered, finances became un-predictable, and his lower back and spirit toward life became worrisome.  Rather than continue the trend, he made a guinea pig out of his office, family, and self; attempting any and all personal and professional “experiments” in self-improvement.  More than a decade later, he enjoys excellent new patient numbers and case acceptance, a solution oriented dental team; and most importantly, a meaningful and positive identity.  He happily shares the failures and successes with dental and community groups throughout the country, always ending his presentations with practical, implementable, step-by-step ways to be better.    SHOW NOTES: Our lives are composed of a bunch of buckets. There is a bucket for finance, family, health, etc. The people who win in life manage to keep as many buckets full as possible. However, the biggest challenge that most people, not only private practitioners are facing that hinder them from living their life fully and improving themselves is the burden of debt. Below are the benefits of being able to live simply and avoid this burden: You have more space in your mind to think. You may slow down and do your job in a more comfortable pace. You can make the best decision for your patients.   REFERENCES: EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom from the Trenches by Dave Ramsey Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear   For more information on Dr. Ankur Gupta and his practice, you can visit his website at www.bebetterseminars.com or www.ankurguptaseminars.com.   DINO'S BIO: Dino Watt is a dynamic, highly sought after keynote speaker, private practice business advisor, best selling author, and certified body language and communication expert.

Episode Summary: Dave Ramsey says,” Employees come late, leave early and steal while they’re there”. Mike couldn't agree more.That’s why he refers to his staff as his “team members”, and in this episode, he shares the 7 team traits that helped him more than double his revenue in less than 6 month’s time. Find out exactly what these traits are and why they matter as Mike delivers yet another lesson from the trenches in episode 3 of the Business Grit Podcast. Show Notes: Mike starts out by explaining why he doesn’t want employees and you shouldn’t either. He references the book  ‘EntreLeadership’ (linked at the bottom of show notes) and Dave Ramsey’s quote on employees. Mike doesn’t want you to settle for a mediocre team like he did because he knows it can cripple your business.   Mike explains why it is less about money and more about purpose and how money is not the driver, it's just a result.   Mike gives strong tips on how to draw a revenue doubling team.   As the leader you need to create your company as an opportunity generating machine   It is up to you as the leader to create a winning environment   Before Mike reveals the traits, he tells you - everyone is not going to have these traits.    Mike gives his definition of an employee: “Someone who is going to pass through your company until they get sick and tired of working, thinking you’re taking advantage of them and owe them more, leave and repeat with someone else's company.”   Mike says you need superstar team members at your top tier and you cannot compromise with those members, they must exemplify these 7 traits.   He then gives an in-depth explanation of the 7 team traits that doubled his revenue.   Download the list in the link below in the show notes.   As Mike closes he urges you to download the 7 team traits and post them on your wall to use as guiding principles for every teammate you have in your company.   Rate and review the podcast and listen in next week to the Business Grit Podcast.   Follow Business Grit and tell me more about your business: Instagram  Facebook https://www.flipsnack.com/GYGYMBGP/bgp-7-team-traits-pdf.html Email me: Mike@businessgritpodcast.com If you are unable to get 7 Team Traits Download Send me a Direct message on social or email me!

In this 136th voyage of the Small Scale Life Podcast, Julie and I hit the road and record a podcast. We are kicking off the Quarter 2 Renew You: Introction to Financial Freedom! Money is a tool, and having enough money can help you develop that life you love. Not having that enough money tends to lead to poor decisions, stress and relationship problems with your significant other. Americans have had a love affair with debt: we take loans for our houses, our cars, our cell phones, and buy lots of stuff using credit cards. We live in a country that borrows from future generations to build and repair roads, pay for benefits, conquer nations and protect the world. It is amazing that our money says "In God We Trust," yet we put all of our trust in banks and credit card companies. Getting a hold of our finances and debt is a critical first step in taking control of our lives and starting to develop a life we love. This is a huge realization we had this year, especially with a record-setting Government Shutdown. As Seth Godin says, “Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you should set up a life you don’t need to escape from.” ― Dave Ramsey, EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom from the Trenches. We completely agree and Julie says this exact words in the podcast (which leads us off the Introduction to Financial Freedom Podcast).

Brad Lomenick has had an interesting journey, and many seasons in his life. Brad spent the early part of his 20's as a cowboy. He transitioned to consulting businesses, and by a twist of fate, met leadership author, John Maxwell. Brad was part of a movement of young, go getters, inspired by John, and from there went on to start Catalyst. Brad is one of the forefront speakers on leadership, and the author of H3 Leadership: Stay Hungry, Stay Humble, Always Hustle. Brad views leadership as a stool, which can never stand without developing each leadership trait necessary to really excel. He believes that identity and what season a person is currently in, are two forces that function separately; a person's self definition should not be tied to what they are doing. H3 Leadership is the future, and Brad is at the forefront of helping you leaders truly excel.   Brad's Favorite Quote:"Stay Hungry, Stay Humble, Always Hustle."   Brad's Favorite Books:The BibleThe 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership: Follow Them and People Will Follow You (10th Anniversary Edition)EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom from the Trenches   Links from Today's Show:@BradLomenickhttp://www.bradlomenick.comH3 Leadership: Be Humble.
