I have already read this book twice and find it very valuable. Whatever stage of your career your at, if you haven’t had a chance to read this yet definetly grab yourself a copy and give it a read with a cup of tea. It’s honestly one of the easiest books to read and written very well. With so many valuable insights and lessons throughout, regardless of what stage of your career your at there’s something for everyone to learn and benefit from.

This book very skilfully examines the general personal characteristics of lawyers and how this might be holding them back in both their personal life and career. It provides practical insight into how you can remain ambitious whilst also being gentler on yourself and what is needed for success.
