Episode 482. AMMA — Navigating Private Equity, AI, and Team Dynamics
What happens when your industry gets flooded with outside capital, your team won't match your effort, and AI is rewriting the rules overnight?
In this special live AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill takes unfiltered questions from law firm owners at the SELECT retreat, covering everything from team motivation to private equity to AI's impact on legal marketing. From why intrinsic drive can't be taught to how to position your firm for a future shaped by PE consolidation, this AMMA is a rapid-fire masterclass in leadership, strategy, and building something worth owning.
Here's what you'll learn:
• Why intrinsic drive can't be coached, and what to do when your team doesn't have it • How private equity is reshaping legal, and why the middle of the market is the most dangerous place to be • What it takes to attract premium clients through brand, not volume
The firms that win from here aren't the hardest working, they're the ones nobody can afford to ignore.
