Having to wear multiple hats is nothing new for small law firm owners. In the current climate, and against the backdrop of workplace and legislative change, proactivity is fundamental for leaders looking to stay ahead.

In this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back Gallant Law founder and principal Lauren Cassimatis to discuss the evolution of her firm since its inception five years ago, the practical and professional realisations one has around the need to wear multiple hats, how one has to regularly evaluate the hats being worn and why, and what one needs to be on top of as the new financial year hits.

Cassimatis also delves into striking the right balance between proactivity and reactivity, whether the idea of wearing multiple hats is becoming harder in the current climate, the need for self-care as an additional string to one’s bow, the practical steps she will be implementing in the new financial year, lessons she has learnt over the years when it comes to balancing competing responsibilities, what constitutes best practice, and what excites her about the next 12 months.
