Episode 17: Think Smaller with Michele DeStefano

Creativity is one of the most important skills for a modern lawyer. We all were born creative but somehow along the way many adults seem to have lost their creativity. But the good news is that creativity can be practised, just like lawyers practice law to become better at their field of law. Creativity and innovation are hard work and new ideas to make law better aren't born magically overnight. We might often think that changing law and the legal industry require BIG innovation, but what if thinking smaller and putting the oxygen mask on yourself first are the things to start with? In this episode Michele DeStefano shares her career story and encourages us all to embrace our people skills and creativity.  Michele is Professor of Law at the University of Miami and Faculty Chair in Harvard Law School’s Executive Education. She’s the founder of LawWithoutWalls and MoveLaw.
