Leadership in law is often treated like something that comes after the promotion, after the title or after someone hands you a team and assumes you magically know what to do with them. Nicole Lester Arrindell sees it differently.
In this episode of Between the Briefs, Adrian Cea and Joe Stephens sit down with Nicole, Head of State Regulatory and Legislative Affairs and Associate General Counsel at Equitable, for a wide-ranging conversation on servant leadership, legal education, public service, in-house counsel, mentorship, and what it actually means to lead in the legal profession.
This episode is a reminder that legal excellence is more about judgment, empathy, communication, influence and the ability to help people get where they are trying to go, than about sheer knowledge.
