How compelling is your business development?
Business development in law firms is increasingly important. Rainmaking is a prized skill to improve fee earning, and cross selling between practice groups vital.
Competition is increasing and firms need to achieve more with less people and budget. Few lawyers entered the profession wanting to do business development and network, but more time needs to be spent on it. Firms, practice groups and individual lawyers all need compelling differentiation.
We provide:
- Business development mentoring
- Practice group programmes
- Group coaching for cross referral between practice groups
- On-line content
