Rainmaking may not always come naturally to lawyers, but through using the approach outlined in Daunting to DOable and working with Karen, we have seen that the skills can be taught. Often what holds lawyers back from actively developing business is feeling they simply don’t have the time to focus on it. Karen gets lawyers. She really listens to each person’s concerns and reservations, and works with them to shape her process and techniques to fit their reality and personality. Maybe most importantly, she shows them how to use these tools to build a gratifying legal career.
