Summer prep leads to law firm Fall associates’ success!
Law firms, the new associate season is upon us. I am excited to offer two innovative, interactive professional training presentations that prepare your new associates for success.
1. Professionalism and Wellness for New Lawyers
This training will teach associates the following:
- Meeting Expectations of Clients: Advise associates that mid-level and senior associates as well as partners are their clients, and reliability, responsiveness, and clear communication are key.
- Establishing and Maintaining Professional Relationships. Teach associates that first impressions happen quickly and are long lasting so being thoughtful about first encounters is critical.
- Wellness is Part of our Professional Responsibility. Remind associates that taking short breaks actually contributes to our productivity and how practicing wellness contributes to clear judgment and effective lawyering.

2. Perfecting the Elevator Pitch: The Art of Developing Relationships and Business
This training will teach associates the following:
- First Impressions Count: Equip associates to craft impactful introductions that showcase their expertise and the client problems they solve.
- Every Encounter is an Opportunity: Teach associates that every new encounter may be an opportunity for business and career development.
- Focus on Value: Remind associates that they will meet new people every day and should be ready to answer the question “What can I do for you?” since that is what the others are wondering during introductions.
