Today’s episode is with the Co-Founder and Former Chairman and CEO, LeClairRyan, Gary LeClair. This episode is about knowing when it’s time to hand over leadership.

Gary is well known not only in Central Virginia but across the East Coast and even major business communities across the country with his national law firm. Gary is a confident leader but as you will hear in this interview, he worked hard to create his style of leadership and used his resources to get help to become the kind of leader he was meant to be.

I coach and advise on the seven key disciplines that highly effective, highly engaged and highly successful leaders know and do every day. That’s why I love hosting the Authentic Leader Show so you can learn from the hard-won insights and stories of these high performing leaders.

In this interview, you’re gonna hear us talk about:

  • Why as a leader your intentions aren’t enough and what is required of leaders instead.
  • Why Gary doesn’t focus his communication to the people who are against a decision and where he focuses his attention instead.
  • The unintentional consequences of hiring employee referrals and why LeClairRyan had to go back to their “values” to change the intention of their hiring practices.
  • Gary helps us understand who “They” are and what to do to combat being part of “They”.
  • We also talk about Encorepreneur! An idea to address Baby Boomers who are living longer and recognize the need to “stay in the game”. He also shares the 15-minute rule he and Co-Founder of Encorepreneur!, Stan Maupin, established.
