Professional Training: Regional Edition - Sally Hulston - E02
from Legally Speaking Podcast Hosted by Legally Speaking Podcast™
Welcome back to our 2026 edition of the Professional Training miniseries. We have a brand new regional edition continuing on from the last conference we attended, but packed with even more highlights and insights. Filmed at Manchester Hall, these minisodes explore high performance leadership, career growth, innovation and what it takes to thrive in today’s legal world. In this minisode, we talk to Sally Hulston, an employment lawyer and head of Lewis Silkin’s Manchester office. She shares a people-first view of high performance in legal teams. Sally argues that success goes beyond traditional metrics, relying on clarity of role, deliberate leadership visibility, psychological safety, and accountability that gives people room to take ownership. Sally also highlights the importance of bringing lawyers and business services together from the outset, building resilience through the ability to reset after setbacks, and creating more open one-to-one conversations that focus on how people are doing—not just their output. You can Hear Rob and Sally talking about: - Performance Needing Purpose, Not Just Metrics - Collaboration Growing Through Deliberate Visibility - Psychological Safety: Speaking Up Early - Accountability Giving People Ownership - Resilience Being All About Recovery, Not Endurance.
