Keep Calm and Carry On: Building Resilience and Practicing Well-Being in the Midst of Global Challenge and Change

Thursday, April 17, 2025 | 12:00 PM EDT - 2:00 PM EDT
This CLE program will explore four concepts: 1) What is VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment and what impact does it have on our lives and the practice of law; 2) What does it mean to “develop” resilience and to “practice” well-being as a lawyer and in the legal profession; 3) How can resilience and well-being inform our ethical practices and increase civility and professionalism within the practice of law; and 4) What evidence-based practices and strategies can participants implement as part of a personal and professional well-being plan.

Topics include:
• What is “VUCA” and why does it matter in relation to the practice of law?
• What is resilience, why does it matter for lawyers, and what are the ethical implications of it?
• What is well-being, why does it matter for lawyers, and what are the ethical implications of it??
• What matters most about well-being in the practice of law, and how can well-being improve professionalism and civility in the practice of law?
• How can we integrate these concepts to flourish in our lives in the legal profession?
