OBA Mindful Lawyer CPD Series PROGRAM | 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM

Dealing with difficult personalities – whether it be clients, colleagues, opposing counsel, or judges – is not a skill that is taught in law school. The good news is that you can work on developing the right tools to help you maintaining professional boundaries by effectively addressing an individual’s behaviour in the moment.

Explore how your own cognitive biases form your perceptions, and at times, create illogical shortcuts and errors. Discover proven conflict resolution techniques which can help you minimize friction before it turns into a disagreement, as well as, various resolution styles to approach different conflict situations. Identify your individual communication style and access relevant resources to help manage your reaction to criticism.

Build on these effective strategies to slowly reduce unnecessary stress in your personal and professional life. Join us in June!
