Training for lawyers
Any training for lawyers needs to be relevant, concise and useful. It needs to be set in the context of their work. Our approach is to design training interventions which give lawyers clear ideas on how they might improve how they do their work. This business skills, or soft skills training, can make all the difference to their daily work and ultimately their careers.
We have been working with lawyers for many years and at all levels. This experience is reflected in our training reviews posted by past participants and commissioning clients.
Whatever soft skills training you’re looking for, contact us to explore how we might be able to use our experience to benefit your firm.

Participant Reviews
Here’s a few of our latest participant reviews. Read more training reviews.
A truly inclusive, insightful, and empowering training
I recently attended the Working Effectively at Clifford Chance training session and found it to be an incredibly valuable and uplifting experience. One of the standout aspects was the smaller group size, which created a more inclusive environment. Everyone had the opportunity to feel seen, heard, and genuinely included in the discussions.
The session encouraged open dialogue, and participants were free to express their views and share personal experiences without hesitation. This openness was largely thanks to Martin, who facilitated the session with warmth, empathy, and professionalism. Martin fostered a safe and supportive space where people felt comfortable being honest and reflective, which made the session not only informative but also deeply engaging.
Overall, the training was a brilliant example of how thoughtful facilitation and a well-structured format can empower individuals to connect, learn, and grow together. Highly recommended!
Five-star training!
I attended Martin’s session on working effectively in the workplace and you can tell he genuinely cares about the people he is training- he was very interactive throughout, delivered super helpful takeaways (especially relevant in professional settings) and also extended candid advice on how to keep up with an incredibly fast-paced and often times challenging career environment. I highly, highly recommend Martin’s sessions if you have the opportunity to attend them, I am confident you will leave the room with more wisdom.
Bespoke Soft Skills Training for Shipboard Leadership
The Bespoke Soft Skills Training for Shipboard Leadership was very well received. Participants found the sessions engaging, practical, and highly beneficial, with appreciation expressed for the instructor’s time, travel, and expertise.
The interactive discussions and exercises were effective in applying leadership and communication concepts to real shipboard situations. Several attendees noted they could use the material to address challenges with difficult crew members.
Overall, this training was viewed as excellent, relevant, and valuable in enhancing leadership effectiveness and promoting stronger communication across the fleet.
Presenting with Impact Virtually
I recently attended the “Presenting with Impact Virtually” training workshop led by Martin Chapman, and it was a thoroughly engaging and practical experience. Martin’s delivery was professional yet friendly, making the virtual format feel interactive and enjoyable. The session was well-structured, with clear slides and practical examples. I highly recommend his training services for anyone looking to improve their presentation skills in a virtual setting.
Comprehensive and Engaging Training
I recently attended Martin’s ‘Working Effectively’ and ‘Professional Business Communication’ online training sessions and both were excellent. Martin is very engaging and ensures that participants all contribute to discussion. The sessions were very useful, drawing on real anecdotes and scenarios relevant to our level of work. I found both training sessions impactful and will carry the lessons learned into my work. Thanks Martin!

Tailored training for lawyers
Our style is to start with the reality. You will only have the lawyers together for a few hours max. Maybe 2 or 3 hours. We research the subject thoroughly in the context of the lawyers’ work. For example, with management training we make sure we know the expectations of the firm and the practice area before we design the training. We need to make sure we understand what kind of managers the firm expects to develop. Delegation is often a development area, but we need to understand what the reality is in the firm.
If you agree we can engage with the participants prior to any training session to gain their perspective on their needs. This we do with simple online questionnaires like our Pre-Workshop Questionnaire.
