Targeted Topic Learning

GRAVITAS


What You Didn't Learn in Law School

These topic driven group coaching calls will be conducted live (and then recorded) with Laura and cover scheduled topics of discussion. You are invited to send your topic-related questions to Laura prior to each group coaching call to get into the Hot Seat and get personal help.

The program is NOT a course or series of trainings.

There are no single courses, books, or programs that can address the breadth of topics that this membership addresses. 

In this exclusive coaching membership, you will hear from like-minded counterparts, and both give and receive feedback.

Why is this important? Because in your busy practice and life, you don't have time to sit through hours of classes to find the nuggets you need, or worse, to find the nuggets you need aren't part of the course after all! As a member, you can ask your peers about their similar experiences, and ask for guidance on how to best manage business situations and conversations. 

Each month we cover a new topic along with contemporary concerns (i.e., building relationships, working effectively while you and your team are remote, impactful client meetings, and coworker interactions in the new post-COVID environment, in addition to working through and post firm mergers, mentoring, managing staff, and more), while addressing specific questions, concerns, and experiences you have. In this secured community for members only, you share only what you are comfortable sharing.

The Refined Lawyer™ is an Exclusive Virtual Group Coaching Program Guiding Lawyers In Mastering Business Professionalism and Social Capital Skills to Build Relationships, Create Positive Interactions, and
Increase Their Book of Business
