How to Build Better Boundaries & Avoid Burnout in the Legal Profession — without Ruffling Feathers [Webinar]
Join us to improve your boundary-setting from Elena F. Deutsch, MPH with this special, interactive installment of Webinars for Busy Lawyers.
Boundary-setting is a buzz word in the legal industry. You know you’re supposed to have boundaries, but how do you set them? How do you enforce them without upsetting your clients or co-workers? You’d like to have your work be more sustainable, but that seems antithetical to the legal expectations of having to “always be available” to your firm or clients.
This is important to you because you no longer want to work the way you have been. You don’t want your life to be so focused on work; you’d like your work to support your life. This program teaches you a framework for setting boundaries without ruffling feathers.
Learn tips to clarify your priorities and have a simple way to communicate your agreements, that give you spaciousness, relief, and clarity.
AGENDA:
- Know the 3-Step system to guide you to set boundaries based on your values and priorities
- Learn how to uphold boundaries over time while maintaining positive relationships with clients, colleagues, and opposing counsel that create smoother professional interactions
- Practice setting internal boundaries to support the external ones, increasing your resilience, energy, and capacity
This will be an interactive format and recorded. If you don’t wish to appear in the recording by video or audio, you can participate through the chat only.
