Corporate Counsel CPD Webinar | Coaching to Improve Performance
View the recording and presentation materials on our library archive: http://mcmillan.lawcast.tv/
When you supervise other lawyers or paralegals on your team, there is no more powerful way to improve their performance and motivation than to provide prompt, effective coaching and feedback. Yet, many supervising lawyers shy away from coaching and feedback because they think it will take too much time, do little good, or lead to painful conversations that damage a working relationship. This program will show you how to provide effective coaching in ways that produce better work and strengthen the relationship.
Topics will include:
- how to spot and create opportunities for on-the-fly coaching
- the keys to providing critical feedback constructively, without provoking defensiveness
- a simple, flexible approach to organizing a feedback conversation
This program qualifies for up to 1 Professionalism Hour in ON, 1 Ethics/Practice Management Hour in BC, and 1 CLE Hour in QC.
