I LOVE the premise of this piece: creative, no-holds-barred brainstorming leads to winning ideas. Sure, those ideas often need refining, but the magic starts with bold thinking. The key? Foster a culture where your team feels safe sharing their ideas. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

There are networking events, and then there are networking events—IYKYK (ask a youngster). @UpstateCapital @PhillipsLytle @noamari_noa linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! And no, I don’t mean the holidays… I mean Comfort Food Tuesday. Our office was transformed into...linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

SUTV @ UPH Translation: #StartupTechValley at Universal Preservation Hall—a great event at a great venue right here in my hometown of #SaratogaSprings. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

This inefficiency is the price you pay for a future bet. That’s what real vision looks like. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Asking for client feedback has always been a part of my professional journey. If you're committed to improving and believe in your value proposition, it's a no-brainer. The real question is: Do you want (and can you handle) the truth? linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Not just barristers, but bakers too! We enjoyed a delightful cookie exchange today, which gave us an opportunity to celebrate the last week with our stellar summer associates. Their contributions and energy have been a fantastic addition to the office.

One more perk of the standing workstations at our new office: no awkwardness trying to stand-from-a-sitting-desk after a midday run! There's a rumor (okay, it was me) that the @PhillipsLytle Albany team is organizing a weekly 5K...linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

At first I thought my GPS wasn’t working this morning... Our @PhillipsLytle Albany office recently moved into a beautiful new space at 3 Winners Circle. Yet, somehow, this morning when I ended my commute I wound up at THIS winner’s circle. Go figure. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Every so often, a start-up client will approach me with their own draft term sheet, hoping to dictate the terms for potential investors. If only it were so. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Great @PhillipsLytle team effort as we wound our way through Albany on what was a perfect evening for a run… with over 6,000 others. Speaking of fresh legs, we have some talented young professionals joining our firm soon. Looking forward to their energy and new perspectives!

A day in the life! My morning began in business attire. By evening, I switched gears—and outfits—to join the Albany Bar Foundation Law Day 5K's 30th Anniversary edition at Corning Preserve along the scenic Hudson River. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch… @PhillipsLytle

There was a serious knowledge drop at the @AlbanyBizReview's State of the Economy breakfast this morning. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Another year at the @NYBPC and my amazement has not waned. Today was extra special because my youngest son Jason Schwartz, an engineering student at @GeorgiaTech, joined me at the event. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Shout out to the @CresaCorp team - Zac Conley, Todd Stevens, and Jodi Emmons - for the invite to the @AlbanyBizReview's Best Real Estate Deals event. It was great to catch up with some old friends. It's prime networking season...

It was a packed house at Startup Tech Valley last night. After a COVID-induced hiatus, the entrepreneurial community turned out in full force - over 250 people. Amazing. I suspect the good energy will carry over into future events. I certainly know it will for me.

I’m a huge proponent of the underlying premise here: “…reap the benefits of investments made in employees even after they’ve exited.” Specifically, the idea of maintaining ties with former employees via a corporate alumni program. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

This is yet another reminder that simply being good at your core competency is but one component (albeit an important one) of your overall value proposition; solid work is the ante that gets you in the game. @PhillipsLytle linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…

Disclaimer: I love me some Chipotle. This is a neat little primer on stock splits. But, it got me thinking about how optics can sometimes matter more than the math. linkedin.com/posts/jeff-sch…
