Service To Others, The Secret To Success New Solo

    • Management

Lift your practice by lifting others. Host Adriana Linares talks with attorney and community leader Eugene Pettis about how his lifelong commitment to community service built his brand and his business. 
Pettis, the first African American president of The Florida Bar, made a conscious effort to carve out time for giving back, leading literacy and education efforts and fostering open, honest communication while seeking solutions. Public service builds connections, brand, and ultimately business. “We’re on this earth to do better by others,” he says. 
But don’t forget, a business doesn’t build itself. Be bold. Pettis, who has represented Fortune 100 companies including ExxonMobil and Starbucks, says he’s never shied from approaching even the biggest potential clients.

Topics: 

Service above self. Know the value of community service and helping others.

 If you see a problem, solve it. If you have a good idea, act. Community involvement builds your brand.

Be bold. Don’t shy from approaching the biggest potential clients.
