About This Episode
Last year, Autumn Witt Boyd’s law firm experienced rapid growth. She needed to figure out how not to be involved in everything as the firm’s founder and lead attorney because she was doing 19 people’s job descriptions. Autumn shares how she is successfully managing the rapid growth while scaling a high-performing team and developing a thriving team culture – all while removing herself from the day-to-day weeds of the business – on this episode of the Visionary CEO Podcast.
