Professional Development
Teaching you to stand out from the crowd!
What does success mean to you? What plans do you have for your professional life – in-house, sole practitioner, an aspiring partner/owner or paralegal of a multi-national firm?
The educational programmes that are typically found in most law firms focus on the technical side of law and do not enable people to develop key attributes that the 21st century lawyer needs. I am referring to skills like courage, leadership, judgement, political awareness, networking, self-confidence and helping others build self-esteem that are essential to developing your professional career.
This section includes:
- Partner development programmes based on competency skills which incorporate training and coaching
- A mini professional MBA devised by Beyond the Brief and run by Falconbury for Managing Partners and Heads of Department
