Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

ACC Australia is delighted to offer a powerful, practical interview with Madeleine Shaw, following her session which received outstanding feedback at the recent NSW In-House Counsel Day. 

Do you proof-read your sent emails?

It’s no secret that burnout, dissatisfaction and overwork are rife within legal practice. If it just took brains to solve that problem, you would have done that by now. Yet smart lawyers end up held back by many of the habits that, in some ways, are also what made them successful:

  • Perfectionism
  • Strong work ethic
  • People pleasing
  • Detail focus, micromanaging and difficulty delegating
  • Conflict avoidance, or frequent conflict
  • Difficulty making decisions
  • Overwork and burnout

In this session, you will take a new perspective on this paradox and hear about practical action steps for getting back to solid ground while retaining the traits that make you a great lawyer. 

ACC Australia and Madeleine will also be offering an 8 week program to guide you through this process in depth, launching in August, and will share details with you on this webinar.
