One key quality of a powerful networker is they are A Big
Picture Thinker. It is important someone sees the micro/macro view of what they
do and how what they do fits in to that picture.
One of the most successful networkers who demonstrates this is
Lori Williams, founder and president of Your Legal Resource. Her business is
built on bringing together qualified, competent legal representation with
individuals and companies who require such services.
While public speaking and going to the dentist are the top
of surveys for activities people dislike, dealing with lawyers would also be in
many people's top 10. She has taken
steps to ensure the right fit of client and representation and does so
professionally, with no out of pocket cost to the client.
Here is someone who saw a greater need and built a business
around it. She could have continued upon a successful career as a lawyer, but
chose to head in a different direction. The direction involved helping others
to have the successful outcomes which they seek.
Williams has also been a champion to aid lawyers and their
staffs in using networking and communications to assist them in removing the
barriers between them and prospective clients. Her company stages training events
and workshops to provide legal professionals an ability to embrace
interpersonal skills as well as emerging technologies to get closer to those
who need this support. She is an active member in her chamber as well as other
groups, not just because it makes sense from a business point of view, but
because she feels her service can make a different in an often times complex
and litigious world. Her efforts were affirmed as she was named Birmingham
Bloomfield Chamber of Commerce Ambassador of the Year in 2011.
As an experienced attorney herself with over 20 years in the
legal field, Williams brings the skilled, intuitive counselor side of the legal
profession to both client and attorney. She has made her success by
understanding the needs of both sides and provided a format from which each can
accomplish their objectives.
