A Happy and Resilient Mindset in the Law
Legal workplaces are inherently stressful and legal professionals are known to be disproportionately at risk of suffering from psychological distress and illness. Workplace factors have been proven to contribute to this risk causing harm to people’s health and adverse impacts on the organisations that employ them (including absenteeism, “presenteeism”, staff attrition, and WHS liability risks). It is not just the nature of the work, the hours worked, but also the environmental factors like the economy, what is happening in the world, our relationships, what we do apart from work, and our journey in life that contributes to our mental wellbeing and at times it is not healthy.
Margie will lead the group through a lecture on the importance and strategies for developing and maintaining a happy, heathy and resilient mindset in the legal profession. The presentation will be followed by networking drinks and nibbles.
Presenters:
Margie Ireland, Leadership Psychologist, Facilitator, Speaker
Genevieve Dee, President, Queensland Law Society; Partner, Landers & Rogers; Accredited Specialist (Family Law) – Qld
Matt Dunn, CEO, Queensland Law Society
