General Counsel for one of nation’s largest school districts with 10 attorneys in a siloed public-sector organization.

The Problem
General Counsel recognized that his attorneys lacked the management skills to lead a team of 40 lawyers in a high-pressure politically charged environment.

The Coaching
Six-month program meeting on-site biweekly with GC and his direct reports.

Leadership development and classroom training combined with one-on-one coaching.

Focused on organizational health, restructuring, and tearing down siloes to promote cross-functional communication and collaboration.

Result
Team now collaborates on hiring, firing, ethics, and standards, sharing resources and outsourcing legal work, resulting in 20% cost reduction.
