Introduction

‘You are never too old to learn’ is a well-known expression, and whether you are at the start of your legal career or a seasoned practitioner, those crucial soft skills are often overlooked simply because we are so busy doing the ‘day-job’. Yet, it is the day-job that would benefit immeasurably from some focussed guidance in the diverse areas that we have to cope with every day.

This virtual classroom seminar will cover all the primary skills needed to navigate your way through your career at a practical level. Given the informal workshop format, Richard will also be happy to broaden discussions to any practical issues delegates would like to raise.

What You Will Learn

This live and interactive course will cover the following:

  • How to manage your manager
  • Preparing for, participating in and conducting effective meetings

  • Legal supervision - key skills in supervising and being supervised
