Carla Johnson is an author, speaker, innovative thinker, and engaging personality. She recently spoke at our summit and did an amazing job. Today, she is joining us to talk about innovation.
The truth is, many of us lawyers have trouble with innovation. There are a variety of challenges and traps that come with innovating in the legal field. Additionally, whether someone is a lawyer or not, innovation doesn’t come naturally as adults.
