Skills For Future Facing Teams is our programme of leadership skills for in-house legal teams. Packed with the latest insights and practical tips from top executive coaches, our sessions cut through the management fads and the hype – and focus on the skills and behaviours that will make a difference to your team’s performance. 


Why join this session?

Producing work that delivers exceptional value and which is hard for others to replicate requires lawyers and other professionals to solve complex problems. Professionals therefore require significant periods of time for ‘deep work’ – activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that push their cognitive capabilities to their limit.

Creating the optimal conditions for deep work helps organisations to preserve their competitiveness in a world increasingly characterised by automation and the commoditisation of knowledge. However, many professionals find themselves in working environments that prioritise rapid communication, leading to fragmented attention and an erosion of value.


What will we cover? 

In this session, with organisational psychologist Edward Walker,  we explore:

  • the key barriers to deep work
  • strategies to integrate deep work into your schedule
  • hints and tips on how to improve your ability to focus and resist distraction (including use of social media).
