Reviews
This is a must read for anyone looking to get to the next level in their legal career. The book cleverly marries professional services experience and expertise with the power of coaching. -- Claire Rason
I so wish I had been able to read this book when I started my legal career. Looking back, it is clear I had no guidance or goals about how to succeed or what success meant to me in terms of my career. The wise words throughout this book will make you think and really help develop your legal career in the way that works for you. The insights provided also give understanding on how to provide a valuable and meaningful service to clients so that their professional and personal needs can also be met - a client for life being the result. The coaching approach really is the way forward to develop your career for you and your employer/firm. -- Helen Goss
