Gilson Daub Spotlight: Firm Holds Staff Leadership Summit in Las Vegas
Following a very successful Partner Summit in April 2024, Gilson Daub held a staff-focused leadership development training summit on May 16 at its Las Vegas office, which also serves as the Firm’s secondary headquarters and centralized staffing hub. Fifteen administrative and management staff members attended this immersive session and the topics covered included:
- Creating value
- Problem-solving
- The firm’s distinct culture of communication
- The differences between follower vs. manager vs. leader
- Becoming a Gilson Daub staff leader and leadership roles within the firm
- Team building
- Strategic learning
- Vision crafting
- And more!
Speaking on the day’s activities, Gilson Daub Senior Founding Partner Brent Daub remarked, “Leadership training and team building are two vital components of our Firm’s culture. At Gilson Daub, we set clear leadership paths and offer frequent training and management opportunities to help those interested in achieving those paths. We are also currently in hyper-focused growth mode and want to consistently and cohesively prepare our staff for the next round of Firm advancement in the year ahead.”
Gilson Daub’s unique staffing model centralizes most attorney support staff in Las Vegas, allowing the Firm to scale administrative support across all offices quickly and efficiently as needed. This innovative approach plays a pivotal role in the Firm’s capacity to adapt and expand, “Having a central staffing location enables us to grow and scale depending on where needs lie. For example, if we hire a new attorney in Arizona, we don’t need to take six months to hire a new legal secretary to support us in that same location. We can utilize already vetted staff in our central staffing office and get that new attorney up and running in a matter of a few days,” Daub added.” “This is why training and development days like the one we just held in May are so important, they help to prepare all team members to be an important part of the Firm’s ongoing success.” With the Firm’s recent growth and strategic presence in nine states across the country, plans are in place to potentially open a second staffing location in the Midwest in the near future – even further enhancing its operational flexibility and support infrastructure
