Editorial Reviews

Review

Kiran (Scarr) discusses how leaders need to shift the paradigm from delivering results to helping others achieve beyond expectations. She introduces her CARE model which she describes as "a four leap process that takes you through the shift from leading high performance results to unleashing untapped potential in people."

This book is an overdue necessity for the legal industry. We are all leaders, with or without a title, and therefore I encourage you to pick up a copy for there is something in it for everyone.

Brilliantly structured...and referenced, this book also feels like a conversation with the author because she shares some deeply personal experiences from her time as a lawyer "doing high performance"...A BRILLIANT book. - Amazon

Review

This book is brilliant. The closest anyone has come to answering the question ‘how do I lead change in the legal sector?’ Jeremy Small – CEO and Founder, Jameson Legal

We are amidst a sea change in the legal sector. Global pressures, digitisation, and a departure from traditional billing and resourcing mean lawyers and those who lead them need to adapt fast. This book, full of real-life examples and practical tips, shows us how. Scarr’s CARE model demonstrates how to create an optimum environment for growth at every level. Through connecting with a deeper organizational purpose and relating meaningfully with those around us, we can all become more conscious lawyers and leaders. Justin D’Agostino – Chief Executive Officer and Partner, Herbert Smith Freehills LLP

This is a great reminder that times of change present opportunities, and that our teams, more than ever, need leadership rather than management. The Conscious Lawyer is full of nuggets on how to maximize the opportunities in front of us and ensure that our teams are fully motivated and engaged in the journey. Tim Casben – Managing Partner UAE, Gowling WLG.

This book is a game-changer. It caused me to look inside myself to uncover my purpose, ask myself the honest question of what kind of legacy I want to have as a leader and remind myself that it’s okay to be human and to show humility, empathy and compassion. Catherine Workman – Partner and Head of Middle East, Pinsent Masons

The Conscious Lawyer makes us think about our approach to leadership and the impact we have in both the legal and business world. It affirms the importance of being human, having empathy and allowing the heart to play an essential role in our decision making. A must read for senior leaders and aspiring leaders of the future! Rania Tadros – Managing Partner, Stephenson Harwood Middle East

In The Conscious Lawyer, Kiran Scarr shares a unique insider’s view of the legal profession. Her vision of the profession’s future is both compelling and timely, as we take stock of shifting generational preferences and the tough lessons dealt out by the Covid-19 pandemic. A must-read for those in leadership roles within the legal sector or, indeed, any industry sector. Patrick Earl – Chief Operating Officer, Al Tamimi & Co

Law firms are coming under increased pressure from global economic challenges, technological disruption and generational shifts in the workplace. We are in new frontiers of growth and purpose where measures of success expand beyond financial indicators. The Conscious Lawyer tells us how we need to change as leaders to respond to this urgent call to action. An essential read for any professional ready to lead through change in the legal sector. Nick Roberts – Head of Legal Delivery and Innovation, Clyde & Co

For centuries, we have lived in a world where a leader’s status has eclipsed the needs of those they lead. Ongoing geopolitical turmoil, persistent inflation and economic uncertainty are testing a leader’s ability to navigate uncertainty. In this new era of purpose, trust and inclusion, new leadership is required. Kiran Scarr takes us on a journey from our own limitations to choosing greater impact. This book will guide you to become an authentic change agent and help you create the positive impact that is so needed in this world. Iris Van der Veken – Executive Director and Secretary General, Watch & Jewellery Initiative 2030

Kiran’s ‘CARE’ model is a simple guide in how to step up to a higher standard of responsibility for people and performance in the businesses we serve. A must for every leader facing disruption, challenge and uncertainty in today’s globalised economy. Sophie Moloney – Chief Executive Officer, Sky New Zealand

With The Conscious Lawyer, Kiran Scarr sets a vision for the future of the profession: a vision of leadership, humanity and courage. A vision in which values and impact drive results. And one in which lawyers can take down their mask to build a stronger brand. The book is essential reading for lawyers and all those thinking of becoming one, providing a framework for a better future. Mark Beer OBE – Professor of AI and the Law, Shanghai University of Political Science and Law

This book is aimed not just at legal practitioners but us all. Change is all around us as new technologies emerge, as existing business models are upended and as the war for talent becomes even more fierce. Doing what we always did, and expecting the same outcomes is not enough. Change we must, and this book gives us ample food for thought and reflection on how to do just that. An excellent read. Gautam Sashittal – Chief Executive Officer, King Abdullah Financial District

Kiran understands the urgent need for a change in mindset and approach among legal leaders. This book provides a range of deeply-researched and thoughtful observations on leadership, and will be of use to any lawyer interested in developing themselves, the team they lead and the institutions they serve. Andrew Cooke – General Counsel, TravelPerk

This is a must-read for any lawyers looking to distinguish themselves as a leading in-house counsel, or for those looking to fully understand the needs of an in-house counsel as their client. The Conscious Lawyer is full of wonderful insights and thought-provoking perspectives on the current failing in the legal sector, and the behavioral change needed to be a great leader. Justin Dowding – Head of Legal Middle East, Africa, Turkey and Pakistan, TikTok

This book is a journey into redefining values, purpose, and success. Kiran gracefully takes us on the courageous path to challenging the myths that pervade our profession to shift our focus from doing high-performance to being a people enabler. An essential read for those who want to know how to embrace change. Filippo Cossalter – Head of Legal, Johnson & Johnson Emerging Markets and Italy and member of the board of directors, Association of Corporate Counsel Middle East and North Africa

The Conscious Lawyer fully captures the raw challenges facing lawyers in private practice and in-house roles today. Packed with practical solutions to everyday leadership problems, it gives a clear roadmap in how to drive our transformation journey from controlling results to focusing attention on people. Read this book if you want to unleash your potential to be an influential leader of your team and your business. Dr Yasser Aboismail – General Counsel, Schindler

A unique perspective on how to change mindset and behaviour in high performing teams. What it reveals about lawyers’ ability to change how they lead themselves and their businesses is both exciting and hopeful. Mark Hultum – Regional Head of Legal, International Bank

With The Conscious Lawyer, Kiran Scarr has taken leadership in the legal sector to a new, inspiring level. If you want to lead change in your law firm or legal function, you must read this book. Allison Hosking – Director of New Law, PwC Legal Middle East

Digital transformation for any law firm or corporate legal department is a long journey that goes far beyond purchasing the right legal technology solution. It requires lawyers to take a holistic approach to change, prioritising how to lead change within their organizations. The Conscious Lawyer guides us on how to do just that. It is an essential read for any lawyer ready to lead through radical change in the legal sector. Ibrahim Abdel Rehim – Regional Head Middle East Africa Russia/CIS and India, Thomson Reuters

    5.0 out of 5 stars Essential read for any (legal) professional
    Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates on October 22, 2023
    The author reflects a true understanding of modern (legal) office dynamics and archetypes old and new. She offers pragmatic, accessible and inspiring advice on how to live better through work and not just work to live better.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Practical advice from an experienced practical lawyer who really understands the legal profession
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 4, 2023
    Which lawyer doesn't want to evolve from being just a high performer to a conscious lawyer?! This is the author's definition of a conscious lawyer: "conscious lawyers embrace humanness and show humility, empathy and compassion. They are purpose driven, which means they prioritise sustainable outcomes over immediate profits".

    Brilliantly structured - see below - and referenced, this book also feels like a conversation with the author because she shares some deeply personal experiences from her time as a lawyer "doing high performance"

    Easy for busy readers to navigate:

    Leap 1: connect to the leader in you

    Leap 2: awaken your purpose

    Leap 3: relate to the people around you

    Leap 4: entrust others to fulfil their potential

    I have worked in City law for over 25 years, but I now work with Gen Z a lot and I liked the commentary on how best to manage the new generation of lawyers. For example: "Traditional management techniques cannot respond to the motivations and expectations of a new generation. Traditional command and control leadership can send millennials running out of the door. Gen Z are more entrepreneurial and thrive in independent work environments".

    A BRILLIANT book - thank you Kiran Scarr!
