Andrew specializes in leadership, talent, and career development for lawyers and legal executives in corporate legal departments and private practice. He focuses on the people side of legal practice – how lawyers lead, manage, thrive, change, and find resilience and balance. He is regarded as an expert in the people skills that are indispensable for leading, managing, and working in organizations of all sizes.
For over 20 years, he has helped in-house lawyers improve their performance and effectiveness in three directions:
- Upward – working with the C-Suite and Board of Directors.
- Across – partnering with other business functions, outside counsel, and peers within the legal department.
- Downward – managing lawyers and non-professional personnel.
He supports lawyers in corporate legal departments as they make the three fundamental shifts that are necessary for effectiveness and career growth:
- From individual contributor to manager and leader.
- From subject matter expert to generalist.
- From a legal mindset to a broader business enterprise perspective.
