The ability to manage during a crisis is fundamental to effective leadership.  As Chief of Staff to California Governor Gavin Newsome, Ann O’Leary finds herself leading a statewide team as they engage in a battle to control the deadly spread of Coronavirus.  Ann recounts the decision-making process that led Governor Newsome to make California the first state in the country to order a shutdown.  Ann also gives us real-time analysis as California sees a new wave of Coronavirus cases.

 Ann O’Leary offers wisdom and insight from her years working in the Clinton Whitehouse, time as legislative director to Senator Hillary Clinton and co-executive director of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 transition project.  Throughout the conversation, Ann shares the traits, habits and practices employed by leaders during times of crisis. Enjoy this episode of Iron Advocate as we continue to explore how lawyers can kill it in the practice of law without it killing us.
