Ep 49 - Tackling Burnout & Inefficiency ...

Tessa Manuello | Legal Design and High-Performance Coach 🔥🚀
About this episode

Happy Monday! 👋 This week, our mini-episode is about creativity 🔥🔥 — specifically how it can be the solution to these two major challenges in the legal world ... ⚖️


1️⃣ Burnout in in-house roles.

2️⃣ The lack of efficiency in law firms.


These 2 main challenges come from the latest data from the report issued last week by Axiom Global Inc. It's alarming! 🚨 No wonder, folks are actively looking to change jobs ...


Heres the data:

💥 97% report stress and burnout and 39% report it was severe.

💥 96% report aspects of their current work is unengaging or not challenging.

💥 83% said law firms are not completely effective for their needs due to the expense, administrative hassle, and lengthy onboarding process.


📽️ Let’s explore how creative problem-solving can help break through these barriers and bring more flow, fun, and efficiency into your legal work.✨


After all, creativity is a set of techniques that helps solve new or old problems in powerful ways! This week is shaping up to be a creative one for me:


👉 Tomorrow, Tessa will be hosting the Creative Legal Lab — a hands-on workshop to spark new ideas in legal practice. Want to join us? Its 40% OFF for the relaunch! Here is the link to get tickets: https://www.legalcreatives.com/cll-workshop 🎫
