Setting Boundaries: Maintaining Personal Boundaries in Legal Practice
Drawing on peer-reviewed research in psychology, organizational behaviour, and lawyer well-being, this program covers what boundaries are (and aren't), why the pressures that erode them are less rational than they feel, and why lawyers have more leverage than they realize. You'll also learn how to recover with self-compassion when a boundary gets crossed — so you're better equipped the next time.
