Description

Everyone knows that, much like diet and exercise, networking is good for you and that, similarly, there are lots of excuses for avoiding it.

When coaching lawyers or conducting CLEs on business development, the author hears a lot of resistance to incorporating networking as a means of building a book of business. Here are the most common excuses:

I don't have the time.
I'm a professional; networking is like being a salesperson.
It is outside my comfort zone.

A better understanding of what networking really is will convince you that most anyone can learn to do it comfortably. A better understanding will also lead to a realization of how indispensable it is.

Read the article, "How to Network Comfortably & Ethically" to get that better understanding; then answer the 20 questions on the associated quiz for one hour of California Legal Ethics self-study MCLE credit.
