Balancing in Heels: GRIT Webinar
The YLD Commission on Women is excited to announce that its first webinar in the Balancing in Heels Series will air this Wednesday, April 6, 2016 from 12:00-1:00 pm!
The webinar will be an interactive discussion with Milana Hogan, the Chief Legal Recruiting & Professional Development Officer at Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, based on her in depth analysis of the American Bar Association’s Grit Project. The ABA’s Grit Project educates women lawyers about the science behind the grit and growth mindset – two important traits that many successful women lawyers have in common. By providing the tools to assess and learn these traits, the Grit Project enhances the effectiveness of as well as the retention and promotion of women lawyers. Ms. Hogan will share the results of her Grit study and provide detailed advice on how to implement the Grit tools for success!
For more information on future webinars the YLD encourages you to visit the Commission on Women’s portion of its website: /commission-on-women/. Also, of April 1, 2016, the website launched the Commission’s Self, Family and the Practice of Law written interview series, which seeks to have interviewees give their advice and insight on “having it all,” finding balance between one’s personal and professional lives, and the importance of civic and professional involvement.
