In the day-to-day hustle and bustle of our everyday lives, the small yet significant acts of saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ to colleagues often get overlooked. However, these simple phrases hold the power to profoundly impact workplace relationships and the overall environment. Incorporating them into our daily interactions is not just about adhering to basic manners; it’s about fostering a culture of respect, appreciation and collaboration.

Trish Lilley is truly a woman who wows. She is the Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer at Stroock, Stroock & Lavan in New York City, a wife and mother, and an active volunteer for the Legal Marketing Association. I really don’t know how she does it all – and does it so well.

She is also a great advocate for women in the profession, is an innovator in our field and is someone who will lend an ear and give great advice whenever you need it.

I’ve known Trish for many years through our work in the LMA. She has pushed me to be a better version of myself and talked me off many ledges. I am grateful to her for always believing in me, and I know others feel the same way about her.
