Lawyers, law students, judges, and other legal professionals in Massachusetts can find more on scheduling a Free & Confidential appointment with a licensed clinician here.

If you manage any employees in your law practice, you understand what an undertaking it is. Find out how to create a workplace that optimizes everyone’s performance – in 30 minutes or less – with our next edition of Webinars for Busy Lawyers!

We will make this archived webinar available as soon as possible!

This interactive program will focus on how to enhance employee retention, buy-in, work product, and job satisfaction. Leading and building a highly engrossed workforce requires a combination of many things, with each tool impacting people in different ways. With this in mind, Traci will lead us through a personalized quiz, which we can all take based on our unique firms, that will help us identify the strengths and weaknesses at our respective workplaces. A menu of specific ideas to help law firm management will be shared, and attendees can choose which suggestions fit their workplace – making the program customizable. Traci will also share planning tips that we can use to implement our chosen menu items throughout the year. Attendees are welcome to email Traci beforehand at tray@barran.com with any questions or specific “please cover this topic” suggestions.
