Overcoming the Fear of Failure at Your Firm

Domain: Business of Law

Whether a first-year marketer or seasoned professional, you may have a fear of failing, fueled by lawyers (and staff) who frustrate and intimidate. This fear can be immobilizing, but what does “failure” actually mean? A failure to one person might simply be a great learning experience for someone else.

In this session, you will learn how to work with demanding and difficult personalities and examine the “imposter syndrome,” which feeds two basic kinds of fear: action and inaction.

 Topics include:

• How to stop feeding your fears and optimistically focus on your successes
• How procrastination plays a role
• How to understand the language/perceptions of others and adjust your behavior accordingly
• Ways to bolster your confidence and live a fearless existence at your firm
