Brett shares the moments that made him realize working harder wasn’t going to solve the problems in his firm, including trying to manage the business while his daughter was in surgery and working from the beach instead of being present with his family. Tyson and Brett discuss the hiring decisions that helped Brett finally break through that ceiling, why he still believes an executive assistant should be one of a law firm owner’s first hires, and the mistakes owners make when they hire someone but fail to properly train them.
