This program is not available for CLE credit.
One of a series of programs derived from the upcoming book, The Art & Science of Strategic Talent Management in Law Firms, this session provides practical tips for motivating and engaging the lawyers you lead using proven coaching techniques. Coaching continues to gain momentum as a powerful approach to building legal talent. What started as an occasionally-used external resource to address lawyer deficiencies is emerging as a strategic and broadly utilized leadership and lawyer development tool. Partners and other leaders trained as coaches are becoming more prevalent in law firms. Leader coaches set clear goals and standards, expect the best from themselves and others and set the example. They help others develop the adaptability, self awareness, personal responsibility, skills and attributes needed to compete in today's challenging legal environment. Join this interactive session to get information from the experts, learn practical techniques and discover how to put coaching to work for you and the lawyers you lead.
This program will review and discuss:
- A brief overview of coaching and how it has been utilized in law firms
- An 11 step coaching model you can utilize to coach, motivate and engage others
