Methods of professional development in a law firm can take many predictable, innovative or cooperative paths. A motivational “best” for a paralegal may not be effective for an attorney, administrative staff member or a marketing professional.
'Get The Coach On The Phone!'
No part of a legal education teaches attorneys how to supervise support staff, or their fellow attorneys. The future of any law firm is highly dependent upon a firm's ability to attract, hire, train, and retain the best talent. One of the primary reasons that attorneys leave their places of employment is an unsatisfactory relationship between the lawyer and his or her supervisor. How many of us have watched senior attorneys hold on to aspects of their work that would offer a junior person a great opportunity for development? <br/>Coaching can help attorney supervisors assess and evaluate their supervisory style, to determine how to fill voids in their employment management education, to encourage better results from their associates, and to create working teams that best meet clients' needs.
