What Does a Paperclip Have to Do With Law Firm Management?
Law firms depend on customers and that takes lawyers who can attract them. Some people have an ability to do it better than others. From this day forward, let a paperclip remind you that looking for that ability is an important part of managing the recruiting process.
Law Practice Management’s post Trade a Paper Clip for a House tells the story of the blog one red paperclip. “What 26-year-old Kyle MacDonald announced on his one red paperclip blog was his intention to trade up his one red paperclip until eventually he winds up with a house. Implausible? Ridiculous? Impossible? Well, he seems well on his way.”
The Law Practice Management blog relates the story to convey a message: When hiring, look for candidates who have the personality and fire in their belly that will bring new business to the law firm.
