The “Me” Brand
Legal Executive Journal, February 2009
The latest in the Legal Executive Journal’s “Countdown to Partnership” series, Jennifer Overhaus explains why technical excellence is no longer enough to succeed in law and identifies how prospective partners can gain the skills they need to succeed.
Jennifer concludes that there is no ideal character profile required to succeed as a partner. Instead success is determined by how effectively each person works with their own qualities and how they interact with others. To be able to do this effectively Jennifer identifies the following “awareness building blocks” individuals need to understand:
-

-
- Know your values and motivators
-
- Learn how to interact with people
-
