262: Boundaries with Employees

Do you know there's a problem with your assistant or associate but you keep putting off doing anything about it?

This is how you know you're avoiding:

👉 you don't make time for meetings with them, or

👉 you feel resentful and angry towards them but tell yourself, "There's nothing I can do," or

👉 you hope they'll magically get better over time

Sound familiar?

You may think that the problem is with the employee.

The actual problem is that you're ignoring your needs.

You're not creating the boundaries you need to make your practice run more smoothly.

The longer you put off addressing the issues with your employee, the more the problems snowball.

Then you'll be left with a larger problem within your practice on top of the work you're already doing.

This episode of Be a Better Lawyer Podcast will give you:

✅ a step-by-step framework to create new boundaries with employees even if you've never created them before

✅ an understanding of how our past histories can prevent us from communicating our needs clearly

✅ tips to create job descriptions that attract better-fit employees

✅ how NOT to think about boundaries

✅ and more

Whether you have an assistant or an associate, listen in to get help thinking through any problems you're having with them and create a communication plan to create better boundaries moving forward.
