Lawyer Training and Team-Building Retreats
A Unique and Interactive Experience in a Beautiful Setting
Help your lawyers grow and flourish with our two-day Training and Team-Building Retreat in beautiful Traverse City, Michigan. Not every law firm has a huge in-house team to plan and execute an off-site retreat—we will do the heavy lifting for you.
Working closely with your law firm’s leaders and professional development team, we will craft a customized experience for your lawyers that will equip them with the training they need to develop leadership skills, become more productive, succeed at business development, and become thought leaders.
Our retreats, and the training and programming provided, are specifically geared toward senior associates and junior partners in mid-sized to large law firms. All training is interactive and hands-on, and led by lawyer, author, and executive coach Jay Harrington, one of the nation’s leading legal marketing and business development consultants. While each program is customized to meet a client’s needs, some of the training modules that are typically included at a retreat include:
productivity
Most productivity advice centers around disparate and unrelated productivity tips or hacks. In our training, we lay out a comprehensive system that will:
Challenge lawyers to determine what they really desire out of their lives and careers.
Prompt them to examine their limiting beliefs about what they’re capable of accomplishing.
Provide them with fresh and unconventional ideas that will transform the way they think about productivity. They’ll be armed with the knowledge and tools you need to prioritize the time necessary to build a profitable legal practice.
THOUGHT LEADERSHIP
Thought leadership is not just another tactic—it’s the most effective form of marketing that a lawyer can engage in. We help lawyers think through the strategic issues, and provide lots of best practices, that help lawyers stand out in the marketplace of ideas.
Business development
We help lawyers improve their individual business development skills and affirm their commitments to winning new business and retaining existing clients. From building a powerful network to closing new business opportunities, our training covers the critical skills every lawyer must know to build a practice.
Our program is unique in that it not only prepares your lawyers to succeed at the practice and business of law, but also places a heavy emphasis on team-building and individual wellbeing. We work with our clients to plan excursions and activities during the retreat that take advantage of the natural beauty and creative culture that abounds in Traverse City, Michigan. Through these experiences, your new partners will open themselves up to new ideas and bond as a team.
Some of the wellness and team-building activities that we have planned for clients as part of a retreat include:
Agricultural tours
Artisan workshops
Meditation
Cooking demonstrations
Sailing excursions
Hiking
Yoga
Cycling
Kayaking
Vineyard, craft beer, and distillery tours
