  • Great Lawyer to Great Leader

    Great lawyers are known for their legal expertise, scepticism and autonomy, knowing all the answers and giving the right advice. All great traits for a lawyer but not always for a leader.

    When lawyers move into a leadership position, it can be challenging for them to make the shift from expert to coach. In this session for the legal profession, you will learn how to shift from a lawyer to leader mind-set and gain practical tools to gain confidence as a legal leader.
