Thomas J. Giordano, Jr, Esq., founding partner of Pond Lehocky Giordano and Pond Lehocky Disability, contributed to Philadelphia Business Journal Leadership Trust expert panel last week for 15 Smart, Professional Ways to Reconnect in Times of Crisis.
Giordano shares that leaders should be honest and open. “Sometimes the hardest thing to do is take that next step to reconnect. You may feel bad about your lack of communication with your group of friends and colleagues in the past, but I feel that Covid-19 has allowed us all to get past any fear or uncertainty about how we will be treated or perceived if we can simply be honest and open about reconnecting and helping one another,” he contributes.
Tom was chosen for membership by the Philadelphia Business Journal Leadership Trust Selection Committee due to his experience, leadership, and influence in the local business landscape and beyond. Tom has dedicated his career to assisting disabled Americans. He leads Pond Lehocky Disability, the firm’s nationwide Social Security and disability insurance arm. The department has represented tens of thousands of disabled individuals in all 50 states. Giordano has also previously served on the board of directors of the Epilepsy Foundation of Eastern Pennsylvania. A graduate of Rutgers University School of Law – Camden, Giordano currently serves as the chair of the Social Security Disability Committee of the American Association for Justice and as the co-chair of the Social Security Disability section of the Philadelphia Bar Association.
