NAVIGATING YOUR LEGAL CAREER THE ASSOCIATE’S OWNER’S MANUAL

Today’s work environment is much more challenging than ever before. At law firms, the strain is most apparent at the associate level where pressure for increased productivity has never been greater. In these challenging times, development and career planning for associates sometimes falls off the organizational plate.

As a result, high potential associates are often confused about possible career paths. From their perspective, the belief that “if I work hard and do a great job, opportunities will open for me” only partially applies. Today, associates must make their own opportunities: they need to “own” their career goals and results.

THE ANSWER: OWNERSHIP AND INFLUENCE

Working with your firm, The Chad Rosen Group will tailor a development program to your unique environment. Our proven process and roadmap will help your associates better understand how to be successful in your firm and develop better client relationships outside.
