Providing insights that make an impact.

Nicole Kosoff, Recruiting & Talent Development Specialist at Greenberg Glusker, was featured as a guest on The Rainmaking Podcast, hosted by Scott Love.

Scott and Nicole discuss how intentional, values-based culture can be a firm’s greatest tool for retention, productivity, and engagement. Nicole defines culture as the unique personality of a firm shaped by its values—and emphasizes that the most impactful cultural shifts often come at little or no financial cost. She shares examples such as using inclusive language (“works with” instead of “works for”), celebrating personal milestones like birthdays and baby showers, and hosting family-inclusive events that humanize relationships across the firm.

Nicole outlines how cultivating culture starts with small gestures that make people feel seen, valued, and connected—whether it’s remembering names, following up on hobbies, or inviting input through surveys and conversations. She explains that culture-building should align with firm values and be supported by leadership but executed through consistent, people-first actions. This episode offers a practical roadmap for law firm leaders who want to create workplaces where people genuinely want to stay—and thrive.
