HOW TO BUILD A RESILIENT LAW FIRM - LATEST PODCAST EPISODE FROM OSPREY APPROACH

The latest episode of Osprey Approach’s podcast series, Empowering Law Firm Leaders, is available now to watch and listen for free on YouTube, Spotify, and Amazon Music. It features a conversation with Kate Burt, solicitor and founder CEO of Hive Risk, who highlights how law firms can build resilience for their future success.

For episode 19 in the series, Kate, who specialises in risk management and compliance, shares her insights with Amy Bruce, marketing director at Osprey Approach, and advises how effective risk management strategies, leveraging technology and adopting the right culture can enable law firms to build resilience in a competitive market.

This latest conversation covers: -

  • Essential characteristics of a resilient law firm leader
  • Best practices for risk management
  • The role of technology in building resilience
  • Strategies for effective succession planning
  • Maintaining a resilient business culture

Kate outlines three fundamentals for building a resilient law firm, along with some ‘quick wins’ that law firm leaders can implement immediately to improve resilience.

Kate believes that the need for visionary leaders in law firms has never been greater due to rapid advancements in technology, evolving client expectations, and the dynamic nature of the legal industry: "The rise of AI, the rise of the innovative tools, and the changing way that consumers want to buy legal services, is completely different to what it used to be. To be successful in law you need to be at the forefront of what you're doing and have the vision to bring that to the marketplace.”

She advises: “You've always got to be working on yourself as a business leader. How can you show up better? How can you clear away the noise so you can see the vision?”

Watch the full interview now to hear more of Kate’s insights, which provide a valuable roadmap for law firm leaders looking to enhance their resilience and thrive in today's competitive environment.

Osprey’s Empowering Law Firm Leaders podcast series follows the success of its Build Better Habits webinars.
