Fire Your Inner Critic: Guiding Lawyers to Quiet Negative Self-Talk

Combat the disruption and uncertainty caused and furthered by our continuing pandemic by bringing fresh attention and focus to your legal practice and business development efforts. Ensure that clarity, sound decision-making and intentionality prevail as you grow and make your mark as a lawyer. This program shows lawyers how to recognize and mitigate the effects of obstacles and roadblocks that compromise their goals. One such hindrance is your "inner critic." In particular, in order to garner the respect, reputation, recognition, income, and fulfillment that you deserve, it is key to identify your "inner critic" when it shows up and implements effective responses to combat the doubt it sows. In this way, you will be more open to new opportunities, and more valuable to your clients. 

This program, taught by Barbara Kaplan, founder and CEO of BSK Strategies, is beneficial for any attorney looking to identify their ideal client and pursue them with confidence; talk about the benefits and advantages of working with you with requisite persuasion and conviction; control your future and shape your career as you envision it; ask for what you want, deserve and have earned through your hard work; and move forward more freely with respect to client development and service offerings.
