Supervisors in law firms often earn increased responsibilities and management roles by excelling as individual contributors, not necessarily as team leaders.

 

This phenomenon leads to a common skills gap that often frustrates firms and limits growth. What's more, the guidelines available through many general management trainings fail to account for the unique nature of partnership environments, and especially law firms, when teaching how to manage and develop staff.

 

This is where SOUPS Training™ excels.
 

SOUPS Training™ equips supervisors with a whole different type of management framework. Rather than manage by feel, SOUPS apply the following leadership characteristics when guiding teammates:

​

--> Anchor guidance to strategy.

--> Focus on objective inputs, outputs, and goals.

--> Base decisions and recommendations to help teammates grow, so direct reports feel uplifted.

--> Identify practical next steps based on strengths, circumstances, and limitations.

--> Stand on their personal brand as supervisors first, not individual contributors.

​

SOUPS Training™ is for anyone, regardless of title, who manages at least one direct report. 

 

The original SOUPS Training™ includes six units delivered over two days. Participants learn new frameworks to manage people and teams specifically in law firms.
