#WellbeingWeekInLaw: Making Professional Relationships More Human and Less Transactional
May 4, 2023 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm
On day four of Well-being Week In Law we turn our attention to connection and our social well-being. Executive coach and former lawyer Michael Urtuzuástegui Melcher will share insights and practical tools from his book, Your Invisible Network, and from his years coaching lawyers, executives, and leaders of all backgrounds.
Michael will talk about:
- How building relationships with intention can improve well-being and fulfillment (and incidentally make you more successful)
- How relationships are a form of wealth that is under your control, and how you can develop them even if you start from nothing
- The 7 types of relationships you need for your career, and what it means to build a relationship portfolio
- How to fit building authentic relationships into your life as it is right now—in 20 minutes a day
