2. Coaching For Lawyers City Performance CoachingThe age of entitlement is over. The future belongs to lawyers who adapt.The economics of law firms are changing, which makes justifying partnership status for associates more limited and competition more fierce. At the same time. Traditional ways of businesses are changing. Technology and automation are now able to replace many law functions. However many firms have been slow to respond. Whereas lawyers expected clients to walk through the door, now they are realizing they have to market and look at alternative ways of serving their clients The age of entitlement is over. This creates an exciting time for law but also an unstable period. City Performance Ltd 3. Why have a coach? City Performance CoachingIN THE WORDS OF ERIC SCHMIDT, CEO OF GOOGLE The advice that sticks out I got from John Doerr, who in 2001 said, "My advice to you is to have a coach." I initially resented the advice, because after all, I was a CEO. I was pretty experienced. Why would I need a coach? Am I doing something wrong? My argument was, How could a coach advise me if I'm the best person in the world at this? But that's not what a coach does. The coach doesn't have to play the sport as well as you do. They have to watch you and get you to be your best. In the business context a coach is not a repetitious coach. A coach is somebody who looks at something with another set of eyes, describes it to you in [his] words, and discusses how to approach the problem.City Performance Ltd 4.

Case StudiesCoaching in actionCity Performance CoachingTrial CoachingCareer transitionPartner trackA coaching engagement to build confidence and resilience for an international arbitration. A general council was fighting for the case of his career. A $600m international lawsuit against an African government. This was the culmination of 2 years of legal proceedings with the trial as the final part of the proceedings. My client requested coaching in order to be at his best best for the proceedings. This was an intensive daily coaching regime which consisted of morning calls, trial analysis and confidence building exercises. The result was increased confidence and a well delivered argument.Engagement to break the glass ceiling A senior associate at a prestigious law firm was feeling stuck in role. She needed help to decide whether to pursue partner, start a business or look at other roles in different firms. One of her key priorities was finding a role that worked with her role as a mother and wife without feeling that she was sacrificing her career ambitions or time with the family. Through our sessions we explored options and removed some negative beliefs that were keeping her trapped in indecision and preventing her seeing all options. The result was a move to an in-house law role with an environment and salary that suits her lifestyleRemoving frustration with making partner. A senior associate was experiencing the glass ceiling. She wanted to make partner but felt she had been bypassed. In fact her direct feedback was her career had stalled and she hadnt accomplished anything of note in the last year. In our sessions together we created a partner development plan and looked at ways in which she could establish her brand in her firm and make it as a partner. She realized the limiting beliefs that were impacting her reputation in the firm and she started to shift them. She has also increasing her level of assertiveness more able to effectively argue her case for Partner.City Performance Ltd 7.
