Growth strategy and leadership coaching for law and professional services firms
Strategy | Coaching | Training
I've built and led marketing and business development strategy inside Am Law 50 firms and global consultancies. Now I help CMOs and marketing partners do the same: a growth plan, the leadership to execute it, a team built to sustain it.
Services
Being intentional about where you want to take your organization or your career takes clarity, commitment, and the ability to read your business environment objectively. With the ability to see the big picture and break it down into actionable steps to achieve it, I can help you chart your course across multiple dimensions.
Marketing and Business Strategy
A clear-sighted growth plan built around your firm's economics, client priorities, and competitive position, rather than a template borrowed from another industry.
Leadership, Business Development and Executive Coaching
For partners building followership and for marketing/BD leaders building influence inside the firm, I provide coaching that translates soft skills into measurable progress: executive presence, promotion readiness, and credibility with practice leadership.
Team Training and Transformation
Practical, hands-on work to build trust, alignment, and collaboration on your team, delivered through workshops, structured offsites, and phased team-development plans, not just a values conversation.
Know-how and insight born from deep experience
For more than 30 years, I led marketing and business development strategy inside premier firms, most recently as Global Head of Strategy and Business Development for Hogan Lovells' Litigation, Arbitration, and Employment practice, a $900M practice with 200+ partners and 800 lawyers. Before that, I held similarly senior-level roles at Goodwin and Booz Allen Hamilton. I founded Marketing& to bring that same rigor to a select group of clients. I've sat inside the system: how partners think, how practice groups compete for resources, how legal and consulting buyers decide. If you need a strategist who's done the job, not just advised on it, that's who I work with.
