Martindale Goes Social

Social Media and Social Networking has finally penetrated the core of the legal profession. A brand new social networking site, backed by the muscle of Martindale-Hubbell/Lexis Nexis, promises to be THE place to network with other attorneys.

Following the LinkedIn model, this new community allows lawyers to contact other lawyers you already know and get introduced to their connections.

Open to lawyers only, this on-line community will provide both networking and educational opportunities. The interface is extremely easy to navigate and lets you watch the activity of your connections, get legal news and updates, make offers to add other attorneys you might know to your personal network of connections and allows you to post questions to your groups.

The legal community can certainly use a thoughtful niche community for lawyers like this community is poised to be.  I’m checking it out and will certainly let you know what I think.

Expect the Best!

Psyche of a Law Firm Associate

I recently read an entertaining commentary entitled WONDERFUL YOU (you’ll need to sign up for a free account to read the article) on striking a balance between individuality and fitting the mold.

It was written just for those of you who are (or are striving to be) successful law firm associates … .   Enjoy the article!

Now … for a short coaching exercise. 

Spend 15 or so minutes thinging about how you can incorporate bit of your individual style and personality into your law firm life.   Get out your journal and write everything that comes to mind (from wearing meaningful or unusual jewelry to hanging a piece of meaningful  and tactful artwork in your office to anything else that reminds you of your authentic self.)   Spend enough time with this exercise to list 3 to 7 things.

Now … decide what you are willing to incorporate into your life and do it!  

Remember, if you do not take care of you … no one will …

Until next time … Take GREAT Care!
