The St. James’ Post

Your role, Pad, is the heart of an organization. You are an important part of understanding one of the first and fundamental step for a leader in changing a culture - who are your people on your team? How do you best reward them individually as rewards pay much more dividends than reprimands. Team optimization is at the very foundation of sustainability in any business. The profiler only takes 90 seconds but in return, management has immeasurable returns. Take the test: https://lnkd.in/gX9iymBf

As I watched the Leadership Florida account post the announcements of my fellow #CornerstoneClass41 members, I had a flashback to the beginning of my journey with this program, and it's time for some real talk about it. I was intrigued when I was asked to attend a recruitment meeting for the program, but when I read the profile of their target member, I thought, "They must have sent this to the wrong person." I was at a very frustrating point in my career and did not feel like I was Leadership Florida material, but I took a chance, applied, and was selected. When I stepped into that first session, and we all left our titles at the door, I was reminded that sometimes, when you are in the whirlwind of your current situation, you may start to convince yourself that you aren't whom you have always known yourself to be. In these times, you need to force yourself to take a step back and evaluate what is wildly important to you and make a plan to achieve what you know you are capable of achieving. I want to thank every one of my classmates who reminded me of that and put me on an amazing path of personal and professional growth over these last several months. I am simply a better person for sharing this experience with some of the most amazing individuals I've ever met in a single program, neck and neck with my LEADERSHIP COLLIER FOUNDATION Class of 2020 friends, of course! If there is anything I hope someone reading this takes away, it's to be true to yourself and the core of who you are. Do not let any external factors that are out of your control affect your view of yourself. Shut out the noise, identify what is in your control and use that to effect the change you need in your life. I know that I belong, and that has made all the difference.

Continuing our 10 year anniversary celebration, we asked Tommy Mayes (current Board member and former President) the following two questions: In your opinion, what has been the highlight of IPL's first decade? Now looking ahead, where do you see IPL heading in the next 10 years? Tommy said: "It is often said that overnight successes are TEN years in the making. While IPL is not an overnight success, some in the marketplace might observe that the 10th year was a breakout year for the firm. Having been involved with IPL in a variety of capacities for almost nine years, the highlight for me has been working with Alan, Nikki, the team and the Board to develop what was a relatively tiny company into the dynamic and fast-growing firm it is today. And with an A- AM Best rating no less! Ten years from now, I expect IPL will continue its current growth trend, capturing ever higher market share both through organic growth and strategic expansion in terms of our product offerings and market profile." #privateplacement #TenYears

For over 30 years Rifkin Weiner Livingston LLC has been at the crossroads of law, business and government.  Over that time, RWL has been fortunate to represent many Fortune 500 companies and other companies with a national footprint.  We’ve seen our practice grow substantially as the firm has addressed a varied array of national matters – from complex multi-state litigation to national false claims actions to matters of corporate governance and, of course federal, state and local government and administrative actions.  With the establishment of the National Practice Development Group, RWL is focusing those efforts to provide our clients with a national platform to compliment our state practice areas. #law #lawfirm #policy #procurement #litigation #civillitigation #transactions #governmentrelations #governmentcontracting #governmentaffairs #lobbying #federalgovernment Camille F.
