Description

Most law firm owners think they understand strategic planning. They've read about goal setting, they know they should do it, and they tell themselves they already are. But true strategic planning is much deeper. It's the difference between reacting to daily fires and leading with clarity, direction, and momentum. Without a real plan, even the most dedicated owner can feel stuck, weighed down by confusion and uncertainty.

 

In this episode, Melissa breaks down what strategic planning really is and why it changes everything. With the right structure and facilitation, strategic planning transforms how you think, decide, and lead. She explains how to connect your data, goals, and priorities to a clear roadmap, so you always know what matters most and why. Whether your future includes shorter work weeks, a specific case goal, or hitting revenue targets while maintaining balance, this episode will help you see what's possible when you plan with truth, structure, and intention.
