October 2: Manage Your Legal Practice Like a Pro

Lawyers work with people all the time, whether they are their clients, opposing counsel, colleagues, or staff. In order to be an effective legal practitioner as well as an effective manager of the practice of law, every lawyer needs to understand the pivotal importance of empathy in the practice of law. 
Empathy is the ability to sense other people’s emotions, and to imagine what they might be thinking or feeling. Empathy is a key component of emotional intelligence, which is a core competency of any highly effective lawyer, legal professional, or law firm leader. Research indicates a positive correlation between empathy and operational performance, team climate, and employee retention. 
Law firms that embrace a culture of empathy toward their clients as well as their internal teams will have a competitive advantage in the legal marketplace.
--
Like a mini-MBA for lawyers, this four-part series offers lawyers a unique opportunity to develop essential business and leadership skills that law school never taught but that lawyers really need to know to effectively run a legal practice and deliver excellent legal service to clients. This series will also equip lawyers with practical tools and strategies to break down the barriers that contribute to disconnection so they can build trust and communicate for influence and impact.

December 11, 13+29: Eliminating Bias in the Legal Profession

The goal of this CLE presentation is to discuss bias and where it comes from; why it is harmful; how to detect it and how to eliminate it from our behavior as legal professionals. Practicing law is a bias landmine. From whether we believe a witness or opposing counsel; to how we counsel those in our organization we readily apply judgments to others — coloring our perceptions and thoughts. There is no cure for bias, but you can be more mindful, conscious and monitor your thoughts better. These are the four main questions we will answer in our discussion today: What is bias? What are unconscious and confirmation biases? What are the effects and costs of bias? And, finally how can we avoid bias through thinking about our thinking and implementing best practices?
As a result of attending this course, you will have a better understanding of the following:
• Obtain a better understanding of the types of biases.
• An awareness of the effects and costs associated with bias.
• The benefits of setting good policy and modeling best practices.
• Understanding your ethical obligations.
• Gain insight to offer better legal and compliance counsel.

June 21: Culture & Accountability in the Legal Profession

Creating and nurturing culture that supports lawyers (both as attorneys and as human beings) and treats everyone fairly is critical to the success of the legal profession. Assumptions about the inevitability of highly competitive, work-to-burnout toxic law firm culture do persist in the industry. However, challenging these norms empowers legal professionals to help their employees, clients, and business thrive. Join our panel as we discuss the ways in which the legal profession can do more to drive accountability for culture change in a modern legal profession

May 15: Leading Through Generations

With members of Gen Z now entering the practice of law, it’s likely that a workplace can have up to four generations under one roof. From Baby Boomers to Millennials, each group may have differing needs or expectations of a work environment. Acknowledging and understanding those differences is important, but so is bridging the gap for a more cohesive workplace. Our panelists will discuss effective approaches for bridging the gap between multiple generations.
