The legal profession is changing radically. Technological and social transformations mean the traditional model of lawyering is shifting. For the senior practitioner, this requires more than just new skills—it requires a new orientation toward life and career.
About the Workshop
This is an in-depth, experiential learning environment created to help you cultivate a positive mindset and develop strategies for a successful life transition.
