How To Do More Networking
This How To Do More Networking Training has been designed specifically for lawyers and others in law firms, who need to do more networking. It is a realistic look at the challenges and gives practical solutions to get more done.
The Challenge
Some lawyers find networking easy and comfortable. Most do not. Many prefer doing anything but networking. Even time recording or invoicing is preferable.
Workshop Overview - A Behavioural Science Approach
Networking means meeting new contacts, some of whom have the potential to become clients.
In many law firms progression to a senior role requires lawyers to develop business within their practice area. To do this requires networking.
This short session is a workshop where lawyers take a behavioural look at their need to network. It is a practical review of what you need to do and most importantly how to put a realistic action plan in place.
Behavioural science is key here. Why, when we know there is something we need to do, and it’s good for us, don’t we do it?
This workshop reviews the behaviours required and helps each participant create realistic actions with the best chance for implementation.

Engagement
I have really enjoyed the training given by Martin because it was interactive, dynamic, concise and he pointed out a number of essential issues on how to succeed in presenting virtually.
Excellent insights on Presenting with impact virtually
I had the pleasure to attend this training which was led by Martin Chapman.
Martin is a nice, very approachable and clear communicating trainer which gives good insights on the content of the training, welcoming everybody nicely and making sure people get evenly attention during the training.
Training has sufficient diversity when it comes to exercises and things to do in various ways which makes it interactive and nice as well.
It was a shame that not many people were sharing there camera’s more, even though it was encouraged by Martin.
There were many topics on the agenda and for me personally, the second half of the training rushed a bit too fast over many topics. I easily could have attended this meeting 30 minutes longer if that would mean less of a rush.
Overall, very satisfied and enough tools and techniques to improve skills on presenting with impact virtually.
Thanks Martin!
