We all know that good managers and leaders make strong businesses. Having an openness to understanding what makes a good leader, and not just a likeable or agreeable one, requires sober analysis and a number of essential component parts to be in place. Our new Leadership Programme for Lawyers is designed to provide those in management positions with the essential skills needed to excel in leadership roles. Whether you are a new manager, a seasoned professional, or simply looking to brush up on your leadership skills, our series of practical seminars will have something in it to enhance your people skills.

In this series of practical webinars you will learn how to:

  • Understand the difference between leadership and management
  • Get the best from your team through effective management and collaborative teamwork
  • Develop advanced skills in influence and negotiation to achieve successful outcomes for your firm
  • Enhance your personal effectiveness
  • Get a competitive edge to enable your firm to be more competitive in a challenging market

Made up of six distinct modules, this programme will help equip and inform solicitor members on how to perform the other part of your job away from black letter law: being a successful manager and a thoughtful leader. Each session will be highly participative and will address the differing needs and wants of the group.

You can book individual webinars for £120 plus VAT, or take advantage of our package discount and register to attend all six for £600 plus VAT. Each webinar will take place from 11am - 1pm, with a total of 12 hours verifiable CPD available. Learn more about the individual webinars below.
