The reigning Managing Partner of the Year on being true to one’s self

On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Danny King Legal principal Danny King to discuss her journey from graduation to now running her own boutique employment law practice in Sydney, her approach to finding success as a lawyer, the need to embrace one’s true self and not suppress, and how beneficial raw honesty has been for her legal practice.
Ms King also reflects on the need for leaders to have self-awareness regarding their mistakes, why acknowledging that not having all the answers can, in fact, be the best attitude to adopt, looming challenges and opportunities for managing partners, and why leaning on one’s family is so fundamental.
