Show Notes

Teams in legal practice can be complex — clients, juniors, partners, support staff and counsel, all working toward the same goal in different ways. In this episode, we’re joined by Leilanie Pakoa, sport psychologist at Surge (Performance and Wellbeing) and Fiona Pakoa, mentor and coach, to explore how to understand your role within a team, build self-awareness, communicate effectively, and create psychologically safe working environments. We also discuss practical strategies for navigating hierarchy and personality differences, and share simple, actionable steps to help you get the best from the teams you work in.
