Does your firm need better managers?

Management 101

Welcome to the only management training program engineered for small to midsize law firms. Our program encapsulates the most effective aspects of leadership and personnel management, which when done well by your team, drive your firm’s profitability, effectiveness, and intraoffice harmony.

Have you ever struggled with these thoughts?

Rather than delegating a task to anyone, I’d rather just do it.

“They’ll just mess it up and I’ll have to fix it anyway.” 

“It’ll take me longer to explain it to you than it will take for me to do it myself.” 

Mid managers are integral for a growing law firm. A garden is a good thing, but paraphrasing C.S. Lewis, a garden cannot water itself, weed itself, or tend itself.  It hasn’t got that kind of goodness. 

A growing law firm is a good thing, too, but it cannot manage itself.

“Scales & Compass founder Rocco has a great personality to discuss and introduce concepts that may be unfamiliar to new managers.”

Stella Edens Pederson | Senior Managing Attorney

“I found this course to be a great introduction to management and would recommend it to anyone who is new or needs a refresher on management.”

Tyler Bowerly | Client Intake Manager

Why It Works

Our continual industry work shows:

  • 80%+ of management work happens in the mid-manager level.
  • Mid-managers embody company culture (whether good or bad) and act as cultural agents.
  • The aspects of management most in need of training and reinforcement for law firms.

Our proprietary systems deliver:

  • Learning experiences that incorporate your heart and mind.
  • Focused training on practical and transferrable skills.
  • Pre- and post class assessments to target learning and assess efficacy.

Our Experience Feels:

  • Professional and well organized.
  • Energetic and engaging.
  • Actionable.  No fluff.
  • Focused on what matters.

“The biggest area where our system is lacking is that there are no aspects of leadership included in our manager training.  That is a separate class reserved for higher-level managers.  This gap has been identified as a source of problems globally.”

Jason Bell | Chief, Core Training US Army School for Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation
