The Driven Crowd
As a personal injury trial lawyer over the last 18 years, I have met, helped, and worked with a lot of very driven people. From clients to other attorneys, vendors, healthcare providers, and people all across the business and personal spectrum, there are a lot of driven people out there. Even so, they each have unique passions, hobbies, and eccentricities. You can’t necessarily tell from their personalities, their careers, or their background who the driven people will be in any given room. However, one thing I have noticed is that no matter where their passions lie, driven people tend to surround themselves with other driven people. Each episode, we sit down and talk with a different driven individual and try to break down what drives them, how they use that passion to overcome setbacks and failures, as well as dive into their secrets to success. If you want to learn from other driven individuals, then tune in here and join, The Driven Crowd.

The Driven Crowd | Episode 94 | Ft. Shireen Hilal
Success in business rarely happens by accident. It takes strategy, resilience, and the willingness to keep evolving — especially in industries as competitive as law and professional services.
Host Scott Snellings sits down with Shireen Hilal, Founder and CEO of Maior Strategic Consulting, business strategist, and former AmLaw 50 litigator, to talk about her journey from practicing law to helping law firms grow revenue, improve profitability, strengthen operations, and stand out in a crowded market. With experience in leadership roles at KPMG, BDO, and as COO of a national law firm, Shireen shares powerful insights on law firm growth, innovation, leadership, and the future of legal business.
🔥 In this episode, we talk about:

• Common law firm challenges like profitability, culture, growth, and hiring
• How innovation, AI, and operational strategy are changing the legal industry
• Why curiosity, creativity, and resilience matter in leadership and business growth
