10 ways to learn to live with fear, anxiety, worry and uncertainty, yet still be productive, happy, healthy & thriving: Give yourself permission to schedule regular, adult time-outs. During your time-outs, do whatever you like, enjoy, prefer or makes you happy. Either as part of the above or otherwise, schedule regular, 10-30 minute mental breaks. During that time do not watch the news or look at your mobile. Instead practice deep breathing and focus only…
There is no question that we are currently experiencing a global economic downturn. The ONLY question is how long it will last, and how deep and broad the impact will be. A recession (in any individual country) is formally declared after a fall in gross domestic product (GDP) for two consecutive calendar quarters. But, most law firms and other companies don’t have the luxury or time to wait to act until a formal recession is…

Effective #networking requires meeting new people (and staying in touch with those you already know). To get to know people you don’t know well or strangers you would like to meet, when attending a business event or social occasion like a conference, trade show, fundraiser, party, dinner, seminar, awards banquet, association meeting, on an elevator, etc., 1) armor yourself with a positive, approachable demeanor and attitude, 2) make the first move to initiate a conversation by,…

Make no mistake – it is a process that is ripe for efficiency improvements and can be optimized using Six Sigma techniques. Proactively and regularly discuss fees/costs/budgets with key clients – use annual reviews, focus groups and a dedicated, in-house or external professional to plan, and have these conversations regularly. Educate all lawyers and relevant staff on how to select which RFPs to…
