Being more aware of ourselves, our outlooks and our surroundings can transform not only us as individuals but also our organizations as a whole.

  • Surprising facts about how absent we are much of the time
  • The myth and cost of multi-tasking, and the impact on practice management
  • The physical and psychological benefits of meditation
  • How biases and our amygdala impede us – and what we can do to overcome them

Speaker: Adriane David, Mindfulness-based Executive Coach, Mindfully Yours

Overcoming KPI Overkill: Get Metrics that Matter 
October 6, 2022 | 12 noon to 1 pm (ET)

Now that legal departments have access to massive amounts of data, there's a new problem: KPI overkill. Legal managers are learning the hard way that just because they can measure something doesn't mean they should.

While it’s important to have strategic KPI metrics that measure against objectives and goals, tracking and reporting KPIs takes effort and resources. So if your KPIs aren't leading to improved processes, they're not helping you manage your business.

Join us as we look at how the legal department can begin to be more intentional about objectives and how they are measured, as well as the challenges and obstacles to making this shift.

Speaker: Ramy Barsoum, Sales Engineer/Product Expert, Legal Suite

Collaborating Via Tech: Empower Your Team 
November 24, 2022 | 12 noon to 1 pm (ET)

Digital competence is a must-have for all legal professionals. Since the pandemic, legal teams have adopted dozens of new platforms to manage workloads, communicate with staff, coordinate projects, get approvals and more.

Our new digital reality has bought opportunities and connections not possible before, and ultimately can provide powerful ways of aligning and showcasing the value of your team’s activities when used in a mindful way.

Join us to find out how legal tech can enhance team's work and how you can leverage this opportunity in your department.

Speaker: Julian Gay-de-Montella, Head of Learning & Development, Legal Suite

Shifting a Negative Mindset: Create More Positivity in Your Life 
January 19, 2023 | 12 noon to 1 pm (ET)

We are hardwired for negativity, which can have some less-than-desirable effects on how we feel, think and act. Having a negative mindset can affect our performance as legal professionals in addition to our overall wellness. Join Adriane David of Mindfully Yours as she explores how our minds work and leads us through exercises to retrain our brains to be more positive. Topics include:

  • Negativity bias, other biases and heuristics - how these impact legal professionals
  • Positive interventions
  • Gratitude interventions
  • Recognizing and shifting mindset from fixed to growth
  • Optimism versus pessimism, and cultivating resilience to improve lawyer wellness
